The Wooing of Dona Inez

A not quite competent jewel thief's flight from a large U.S. city into the rural desert of northern Mexico creates a cultural and motivational clash of a disparate group of characters seeking wealth, escape, respect or even love. The Wooing of Doña Inez is the tale of a beautiful young woman who doesn't know what she wants, her parents who wish for her happiness with a rich son-in-law, an inexperienced young Jewish man who wants to become a man so he can marry the girl of his dreams and a handsome young gigolo who wants to live to see another day of life and love in the arms of some woman who appreciates his charms. These lives and others are suddenly interrupted by the thief, those that pursue him and those that pursue the pursuers.
