CHITO: In Yuba City,
the harvest may change,
but the people
always stay the same.
I got my red beard
from my grandfather.
He was a migrant worker.
Picked fruit his whole life.
He taught me everything I know
about working the harvest.
[CLATTERING]
FLACO: Come on,

-How many bags is that?
-BLUNT: Quatro, fool.
-This is my fifth one.
-[BLUNT CLICKS TONGUE]

CHITO: We do contract work.
Paid for every bin we fill up.
The sooner we fill ten bins,

[ SOY EL JEFE

I feel sick after that...
The riders stay moving

I can hold about seven days
Two hours to sleep
Then I'm all in
Back to work
Plenty of space
Left to ride
I'm a ranchero
Cowboy hat on tight
Ranchero, no debate
Gotta spur the horse
To make it pay
Make it pay
I make it clear
- To any animal
- Any animal
about that song, vato?
It's that old-school stuff
we used to play back then.
Hell yeah, bro, but now we make
our own corridos too.
Can we play you some shit?
Yeah, well,
let's see what you got.
Play that shit, Flaco.
[SINGING IN SPANISH]
It's hard to be a saint
Everyone in the gang's
A demon
Being bad, I'm having fun
I add four more players
To the list I navigate by
The same people
Who hold my respect
Stop, stop, stop. Stop.
CHITO: What?
CARLOS: What the fuck is that?
What do you mean,
"What the fuck is that," bro?
It's the new corridos.
-That ain't no corrido, vato.
-What? Man, fuck you, old man.
You don't know nothing, bro.
'Sup with that fool

CHITO: Old-school heads.
That's how they think.
That fool don't even

Don't even worry

[CAR HORN HONKS]
Damn, chaka.
-FLACO: Okay, okay.

-Okay, tio.
CHITO: Damn! Okay, tio,

ALFREDO: What's up?

-Good seeing you, pap.
So, what's up?
When you gonna

[SCOFFS] Your ma would fucking
kill me if she even knew
we were talking about this shit.
How's she doing, anyways?
She's working, right?
She hasn't been
working in months.
And the bank's
been sending letters.
You ain't paying
the fucking mortgage?
It's been bad.
[CLICKS TONGUE] Man, get in.

[DISHES CLATTERING]
Hermana, how's work?
It's fine.
Wednesday's my day off.
[IN SPANISH]
[CHUCKLES]
There.
Hermana,
I didn't come here to fight.
I came here to help.
I don't need your help.
Are you sure about that?
Hey, Mom.
Long time no see, tio.
[ALFREDO SPEAKS SPANISH]
Look at you, man. How's school?
-CHUY: In the home stretch.
-Eso.
And as soon as you're done,

The house smells good, eh?
[DOOR OPENS]
-[DOOR CLOSES]
-[SIGHS]
[DOOR OPENS]
Your mom
is just like my jefito.
If you ain't picking up
someone else's shit,
if you ain't picking up
fucking fruits in the field,
it's like
you're not even working.
Who gives a fuck?
Are you guys still kicking it
at that spot or what?
Yeah, you pullin' up?
I don't know, dawg.
I'll let you know, bro.
He knows about the house.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]
[SOFTLY] That's family business.
Ain't tio family?
Not anymore.
-Mom, it's legal.
-Still drugs.
It's a crop, Mom.
I pick peaches, they pick buds.
Grandpa spent his life--
That is the man
you want to be like.
Was it Grandpa's dream
to pick fruit?
Grandpa's dream
was to raise a family
in a house that he owned.
There is no shortcut
to your dreams, mijo.
Going to make some coffee
for Chuy.
[MAN EXHALES SHARPLY]
CHITO: Migrant workers
do the shit
no one else wants
to do in this country.
And that mentality
is forced onto us from birth.
When do we start
doing for ourselves?
When do we get
to live our American dream?
-[LIVELY CHATTER]
-[ ELEVANDO RANGO PLAYING]
What's up, perrito?
-What's going on?
-What's up?
How you doing, bro?
Hey, I'm doing good, dawg. Shit.

-FLACO: Tio , hey.
-ALFREDO: Blunt, how you doing?
-What's up, perrillo?
-All right, tio.
-ALFREDO: Yeah,

[BOTH SPEAK SPANISH]
You tuned up or what?
Bro, I'm always ready.
We look like fuckin' amateurs
to you?
Yeah. You look like an amateur,
for sure.
Man, fuck you. Cheers.
[SINGING LADEANDO IN SPANISH]
A double cup with
A quarter of purple syrup
Sludgy soda with ice
Just to have some fun
I'm leaning 'cause
I've been consuming
It's just average stuff
Not saying that to brag
From Aunt Angelina
We get the bricks
If we put together
Eight ounces
Two-liter Sprite
Half price for you
That's what the contact said
[GIRLS CHUCKLING]
He's the plug
For the small ones
Hooks it up
Here in the area we sell it
For double cents
And to keep moving
The movement...
seen you around here before.
I know. I don't get out much.
-Boyfriend got you locked down?
-[CHUCKLES] No.
I'm in veterinary school.
-So you're smart.
-I guess so. [CHUCKLES]
Hey, I gotta go.
Okay. I'm Chito, by the way.
I know.
When can I see you around?
Sunday. Church.
Church.
[SOMBER MUSIC PLAYING]
[KEYPAD TAPPING]
[BEEPS]
[CELL PHONE CHIMES]
Man, these motherfuckers
are a hundred dollars
a pop on Amazon,
but I went to Meek's,
found these shits
for eight dollars.
Basically the same thing.
They're called gutter guards.
We still need mics and shit.
Fool, we don't acoustically
treat our vocal booth,
even the most expensive mic
gonna sound like shit.
"Acoustically treat
our vocal booth"?
I learned that on YouTube.
Anyways, Flaco, that's good,
pop. That's good.
[GUTTER GUARD THUDS]
Bro, this is a closet.
Fool, you gotta see
the bigger picture, viejo.
Fool, look.
Once we have XLR cables,
egg flats, a mic stand,
a microphone, some headsets,
this right here, fool,
this a vocal booth.
All right, fuck this shit, pri.
I'm out.
Fool, you gotta see
the bigger picture, viejo.
Fuck.
Fuck. Come on. [SIGHS]
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]
CHITO: Making music
is my dream.
[INAUDIBLE]
But the bank don't give a fuck
about my dreams.
I gotta take care of my mom.
So I'm putting
my dreams on hold.
[ WGV PLAYING OVER SPEAKERS]
Damn! Tio, this how you coming?
No. Bueno seria.
These are Angelo's.
And they say,
"Cars are the extension
"of a man's character," no?
Like Grandpa's truck.
I remember the first day
he brought this home.
[SCOFFS]
He had just came back
from Mexico that day.
New shirt, new hat, new truck.
Everything made in Mexico.
He was proud of that.
You didn't come
to reminisce about Grandpa.
Talk to me. What's up?
And it better not be
about those runs, Chito.
-Why not?
-Because as long
-as you're living with--
-Just hear me out.
We're gonna lose
Grandpa's house.
Then you better start picking
some more fucking peaches.
I bust my ass off,
but it's not enough.
Chito, you don't think I get it?
So why don't you let me
do the runs?
It's not gonna happen, Chito.
But we're family.
Let me tell you
something about family.
They'll be the first ones
to fuck you.
Chito, you don't think
I could pay for the house
right now?
Your jefita would
never let me do that.
Whatever.
Look.
Take this. Put it away.
Don't let your mom see that.
Chito, don't tell your mom
I gave you that.
[ DIOSA PLAYING]
Oh, shit! What the fuck?
I ain't gonna lie, mami.
You're wrong
for that one right there.
You know you're gonna be
my future wife one day, right?
-[SONG ENDS]
-[BEEPS]
Hey, it's beeping. It's beeping.
It's beeping.
It's beeping. It's beeping.
It's beeping.
It should be ready.
-Chaka. You're not ready.
-BLUNT: Let me see.
[BLUNT EXCLAIMING,
BREATHING RAPIDLY]
Bro, that shit came out
fucking hard!
I ain't gonna lie. I didn't
think it was gonna work.
You don't like it?
Think we're gonna
lose the house.
No way, bro.
Damn, viejo, for real?
I asked tio
about making some runs, though.
[CLICKS TONGUE] You're never
making fucking runs
-with tio, dawg.
-It's legal now.
Fool, not what tio be doing.
Whatever.
He ain't letting me do it, so...
Fool. I promise you, dawg.
You're talented,
you're motivating.
Fool, the way you tell stories,
ain't nobody doing that,
dawg, for real.
Like, I really mean that, fool.
Fool, we just built
our own studio.
I promise you, fool. [KISSES]
Te lo juro, dawg.
Te prometo, fool.
We're gonna get a deal, fool.
Just believe.
Just trust in the process, dawg.
You got dreams.
-I'll give you that.
-[CELL PHONE CHIMES]
I'm for real with it.
[EXHALES SHARPLY]
[CELL PHONE BEEPS]
Hey, I been thinking, man, um...
Look, I'mma do this run
to Vegas, all right?
[CLICKS PEN]
And I...
I'm gonna meet
with some L.A. homies,
and I'mma stay out there.
[LIGHTER FLICKS]
I need somebody
to do the I.E. run.
[ LOS DOS AMIGOS
PLAYING FAINTLY]
Can I trust you?
Come on, man, I'm family.
Of course, you can trust me.
Be here at 4:30 a.m. tomorrow.
Don't fuck this up.
[ MI BARRIO PLAYING]
CHITO: I don't know why tio's
letting me do the I.E. run.
Maybe he does feel bad
about Grandpa's house.
Maybe it's something else.
Doesn't matter.
[CLANGS]
-ALFREDO: Ready or what?
-Yep.
First rule is staying
under the radar.
[SPEAKS SPANISH]
is always being on time.
I'm 15 minutes early.
Yeah, well, working with Angelo,
15 minutes early
is being on time.
Don't fuckin' question it, dude.
-Where's your Rollie?
-This is flying under the radar.
The packs are in here.
[IN SPANISH]
worry about it. Stay cool.
[IN SPANISH]
you give 'em the ten packs,
they're gonna give you 30.
You count that shit
in front of them.
Look.
Don't leave without counting
the money in front of them.
[SPEAKS SPANISH]
When you get to half a tank,
don't let it get below.
You stop.
No matter
where the fuck you're at,
you stop and you fill up.
It's very important
that you fill up.
-You nervous or what?
-A little bit.
Yeah, well, I'd be surprised
if you weren't. Let's go.
Here, take this.
Fuck.
Get some food, some gas,
whatever the fuck else
you wanna do.
For sure. I'mma shoot to L.A.
to get some kicks.
No, no, no.
We're not goin' to L.A.
L.A.'s off-limits.
L.A. is off-limits. Got it.
If cops pull you over,
no matter what happens,
you show 'em that paper.
That's all you gotta do.
Just give 'em that,
you're legit with that shit.
And whatever you do,
don't call me
or text me on the regular line.
You hit me on the WhatsApp.
WhatsApp. Got it.
Get outta here.
[ FERIA EN
EL PANTALON PLAYING]
CHITO: My mom would probably
think I'm taking a shortcut.
But fuck that.
I've earned this shit.
And fuck anyone
who judges me for this.
San Bernardino is 480 miles
from Yuba City.
I got an eight-hour drive
in front of me.
[ MORENO 80 PLAYING]
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
Who the fuck is you?
[CHUCKLES] Chito.
I'm Burro.
[CAR DOOR CLOSES]
[IN SPANISH]
this is Alfredo's nephew, right?
[IN SPANISH]
not expecting that shit.
Don't be shakin' your head.
Come on.
[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
Five thousand.
Yo, what the fuck you doing?
-Counting the cash.
-The machine already did it.
You are just like your uncle.
'Ey, this shit right here
is fire.
And that's the reason
why I'm doubling my order.
Twenty pounds?
Oh, so you're good
with math, too.
[CHUCKLES]
'Cause, I mean,
I could call your uncle.
Shit, I got you.
Cool.
Hey, ain't that that
homie Junior from G Star?
BURRO: Yeah, that's him.
That's another reason
why I'm doubling my order.
They going on tour.
[ PA QUE SEPAN PLAYING]
CHITO: Seeing that picture
of Junior
from G Star Music
got me thinking.
Was this a sign from God
that I should stop making runs
and focus on music?
Or was this God telling me,
"Keep making runs
so you can do the music"?
BLUNT: Fool,
I be letting the bitches know.
Fool, right off the rip, like,
I live with my moms, so you...
You feel me?
Sneak 'em in the house and shit.
-I just be like...
-Damn, perro.
But they can't be loud.
They can't be like... [EXCLAIMS]
You know I got good dick,
so they be loud.
So they gotta be like...
[GROANS SOFTLY]
You know
what I'm saying, like...
And when my mom walks in,
I be playing possum, fool.
"Okay, you caught me,"
you know what I mean?
-What's up, homie?
-What's up, chaka?
Damn, fool!
It's already later, pops.
My fault. I was a little busy.
-Acoustic treatment or what?
-You like those?
-CHITO: Chaka.
-La Moni got it for us.
La Moni?
[SMACKS LIPS] Ah.
The girl from the field
or what?
This one's been onculado,
-onculado.
-CHITO: Shit.
First of all, fuck you.
And it's not even
like that, fool.
We just connect spiritually
and mentally.
You know what I'm saying?
It's not even about getting
to cracking, fool, like...
You know?
You know what I'm sayin'?
Like, I wanna get married,
fool.
Like, "Be mine" type shit.
You know what I'm sayin'?
Is this tio's shit?
-Yeah, it's been burning good.
-Yeah, this shit's smokin'.
What's up, motherfucker?
We gon' work or what?
Papa, I've been working.

[PLUCKS GUITAR STRINGS]

You should stick to the books.
All I take is dubs.
Okay. All right, let's see it,

All right.
You ain't got nothing, boy.
You ain't got shit on me.
Uh-uh. Catch this little piojo

[CANDY LAUGHING]
CHITO:
Got it all over your lips.
I know.
So, it's like medical school,
but I don't have
a residency, you know?
My brother's in med school.
He's been in there for a minute.
How long
have you been doing music?
My grandpa started teaching me
when I was five.
CANDY: Do you love it?
It just takes a while
to get noticed.
That just proves that you can't
rush greatness, you know?
You sound just like my mom.
She says, "There's no shortcuts
to your dreams."
[ ELLA PLAYING]
What?
I just think your mom and I
are gonna get along. [CHUCKLES]
CHITO: I had fun today.
So...
I was thinking...

[SONG ENDS]
-[DOOR CLOSES]
-Chito.
How was your day, mijo?
I'm gonna pick up extra hours.
We are not going to talk about

Is that your special tea?
[WHISPERS IN SPANISH]
-Mm-hmm.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]
[CRYING]
[CRYING, IN SPANISH]
[SNIFFLES]
nothing from us, I promise.
[CRYING]
The last time Mom drank,
my dad had just left us.
It's time for me to be
the man of the house.
[ CRIMES PLAYING]
I was on a mission.
First thing I had to do
was delay
the foreclosure on our house.
But the bank already
paid the back taxes,
not to help us, though.
They did it so they could
legally steal our house.
The only way I could stop them
was to pay the entire tax bill
and the missing
mortgage payments.
I had a month to come up
with $20,253.31.
I don't know
if it was God or what,
but Burro doubled up
on his order.
[CASH REGISTER DINGS]
Burro hooked me up
with dispensaries
in Victorville...
- [CASH REGISTER DINGS]
-...Lancaster and Bakersfield.
That added another 50 pounds
to my run.
I was able to pay off the house
in full.
Within a month,
I had to make two runs a week.
The studio cost eight stacks
to hook up.
[CASH REGISTER DINGS]
Candy and I
got really close, too.
She was so into the books,
she had no idea
what I was into.
I would tell my mom
I got extra bonus money
because I was picking
the most peaches.
Had to put new kicks
on Grandpa's truck.
[CASH REGISTER DINGS]
I was doing two runs a week,
making eight to ten stacks
each trip.
Sometimes I had
to break the piggy bank
when I seen
something I wanted...
and had
to take care of my girl.
[CASH REGISTER DINGS]
Oh, my God. Those are beautiful,
Chito. Are these real?
It doesn't even matter.
I love them. [CHUCKLING]
CHITO: Of course,
they were real.
I was pulling down
at least 70 racks a month.
The T-Type my tio lined up
-cost me 80 bands...
- [CASH REGISTER DINGS]
-...which left me...
-[CASH REGISTER DINGS]
...some fuck you money.
[SINGING ES DIFICIL SER

Let 'em hate
All they want
I'm still grinding
For that cash
Double cup, soda's nasty
-Damn, perro.
-[CASH REGISTER DINGS]

[ ES DIFICIL SER UN SANTO

Except my mom and my girl
had no idea
I was living a double life.

-Still drugs.
It's a crop, Mom.
I pick peaches, they pick buds.
Grandpa spent his life--
That is the man
you want to be like.
Was it Grandpa's dream
to pick fruit?
Grandpa's dream
was to raise a family
in a house that he owned.
There is no shortcut
to your dreams, mijo.
Going to make some coffee
for Chuy.
[MAN EXHALES SHARPLY]
CHITO: Migrant workers
do the shit

Damn! Tio, this how you coming?
No. Bueno seria.

And they say,
"Cars are the extension

Like Grandpa's truck.
I remember the first day
he brought this home.
[SCOFFS]
He had just came back
from Mexico that day.
New shirt, new hat, new truck.
Everything made in Mexico.
He was proud of that.
You didn't come
to reminisce about Grandpa.
Talk to me. What's up?
And it better not be
about those runs, Chito.
-Why not?
-Because as long
-as you're living with--
-Just hear me out.
We're gonna lose
Grandpa's house.
Then you better start picking
some more fucking peaches.
I bust my ass off,
but it's not enough.
Chito, you don't think I get it?
So why don't you let me
do the runs?
It's not gonna happen, Chito.
But we're family.
Let me tell you
something about family.
They'll be the first ones
to fuck you.
Chito, you don't think
I could pay for the house
right now?
Your jefita would
never let me do that.
Whatever.
Look.
Take this. Put it away.
Don't let your mom see that.
Chito, don't tell your mom
I gave you that.

about Grandpa's house.
Maybe it's something else.

You count that shit

You stop.

Was this a sign from God
that I should stop making runs

Or was this God telling me,
"Keep making runs
so you can do the music"?

my dad had just left us.
It's time for me to be
the man of the house.
[ CRIMES PLAYING]
I was on a mission.
First thing I had to do
was delay
the foreclosure on our house.
But the bank already
paid the back taxes,
not to help us, though.
They did it so they could
legally steal our house.
The only way I could stop them
was to pay the entire tax bill
and the missing
mortgage payments.
I had a month to come up
with $20,253.31.
I don't know
if it was God or what,
but Burro doubled up
on his order.
[CASH REGISTER DINGS]
Burro hooked me up
with dispensaries
in Victorville...
- [CASH REGISTER DINGS]
-...Lancaster and Bakersfield.
That added another 50 pounds
to my run.
I was able to pay off the house
in full.
Within a month,
I had to make two runs a week.
The studio cost eight stacks
to hook up.
[CASH REGISTER DINGS]
Candy and I
got really close, too.
She was so into the books,
she had no idea
what I was into.
I would tell my mom
I got extra bonus money
because I was picking
the most peaches.
Had to put new kicks
on Grandpa's truck.
[CASH REGISTER DINGS]
I was doing two runs a week,
making eight to ten stacks
each trip.
Sometimes I had
to break the piggy bank
when I seen
something I wanted...
and had
to take care of my girl.
