Principios del siglo XX. Greene y Nolan, dos gambusinos gringos, cruzan el desierto de Arizona, pero sólo el primero se queda en México. Se casa con su paisana la viuda Priscilla, quien le enseña el castellano y muere al acompañarlo a buscar una mina. Greene halla y explota una mina de cobre en Cananea, emplea al italiano Coppola, expolicía, y obtiene apoyo financiero en Nueva York al ofrecer la ventaja de unos obreros mexicanos que cobran 10 veces menos que los norteamericanos. Greene conoce a su futura esposa, la chicana Mary, reportera de Tucson y dueña de una acción de su compañía. Se emplea en la oficina de la mina al nayarita Baca, anarquista partidario de Flores Magón. En su visita a la mina se le oculta al presidente Porfirio Díaz la existencia de los trabajadores enfermos de silicosis, sacándolos del hospital. Al agitar Baca a los mineros, Greene llama a los 300 rangers del capitán Rynning, de Bisbee. Un discurso de Greene parece desanimar los propósitos de huelga. Baca hace estallar una dinamita y es detenido junto con el minero Manuel Diéguez. La huelga estalla. Llegan los rurales y exigen que los rangers se vayan. Greene intenta en vano sobornar a Baca y éste es enviado al presidio de San Juan de Ulúa con Manuel y otros; ha habido 12 muertos. La huelga es vencida. Muere Álvaro, hermano de Manuel, al desbocarse los caballos y provocar la volcadura del coche en que viajaba.

Documental de encuesta que recoge diversos testimonios orales sobre la vida de los seris, pequeño grupo étnico del estado de Sonora. Además de los propios seris, hablan algunos sociólogos, doctores, comerciantes y sacerdotes. Se enfoca la difícil sobrevivencia de los seris el agotamiento de sus fuentes de trabajo por falta de medios técnicos para dedicarse a la pesca; el desinterés oficial que quiso convertirlos en agricultores y los ha despojado de la Isla Tiburón; sus problemas de salud; la desnaturalización cultural provocada por la influencia estadounidense (algunos han adoptado la religión protestante). Varios testimonios de supuestos expertos contradicen lo que los seris dicen de sí mismos.
