Once regarded as a wealthy, white, conservative enclave, California's Orange County is becoming less predictable, less tidy, more diverse, more interesting.  In a word:  Mexican.  Filmmaker Moreno reflects on her youth there and returns to discover a fierce battle within the Latino community over what it means to be an American.
