After being deported back to his native Canada, once-famous comedian Bob London attempts a Hollywood comeback by enlisting human smugglers to sneak him across the Mexico-US border.

He is then adopted by a pair of migrant workers named Gerardo and Luiz who resolve to show Bob how to make it in America.
