Very loosely based on Lukes' Gospel, "Salvation Mountain: poses the question: What if Jesus' second coming were a Latina woman? The narrative weaves together the following themes: three female generation; immigration; and angels.

We are left with the question: Do we find strength and wisdom within ourselves? Or were our behavior and ideas something that just hit us from the outside? Was Jessica's journey a singularity of blood and love or a miracle of wit, valor and luck.
