A man of God.  A troubled street girl.  A destiny that may haunt them both. In an overcrowded and turbulent town, nighttime is refuge for prostitutes, hitmen...and anyone else seeking a new start.  When Jenny (Laura Termini), a local hooker, disappears without a trace, the town pimp Armando (Roberto Mateos) sets out to defend his territory at all costs and find out who's behind the mysterious disappearances.

All the clues point to Father Mosqueda (Roberto Levermann), the conservative and beloved local priest, who preaches a radical new philosophy by day and by night prowls the streets -- looking for comfort among the women of the night.  His mission?  To transform mankind in the image of a beehive with the same rigid discipline that runs the world of the queen bee, drones and worker bees.  It doesn't take long before Armando suspects Mosqueda of being the one responsible for the missing girls. 

Little does Armando know the dark secret that awaits him at the final showdown.  Could Father Mosqueda be responsible for the missing women?

When Armando and Carlos Peña set off to carry their mother's ashes back to South Texas and reunite with their brothers, the road reveals more than they bargained for. Calavera Highway (Skeleton Highway), traces the odyssey of two brothers as they decipher their family's story-why their mother Rosa was outcast by her own family, and what happened to their father Pedro, who disappeared during the notorious 1954 U.S. government deportation program, "Operation Wetback," in which over a million Mexican and Mexican Americans were forced across the border. A sweeping story of a family of seven men grappling with the meaning of masculinity, fatherhood, and a legacy of rootless beginnings.
