The Mexican Operation is a western set in the 1950 s, complete with wild horses and good-guys and bad-guys and their women, with a brutal, shocking tale to tell, this is a story of simple life on a desert river, of the corruption that created the money that helped build early Las Vegas, of interracial culture and prejudice, of the shameless abuses of legal and illegal Mexican immigrants, and of social tension in a town and in a era that time</p>
