Summary

A follow-up to the “New Mexico trilogy” – Lyon revisiting some of the subjects of his past work, in particular the family of Willie Jaramillo, who first appeared in Lyon’s Llanito (1971) and later became the protagonist of the feature-length documentary, Willie (1985). Willie died in the Sandoval County jail in Bernalillo in 1992, and here his family members and friends – including Willie’s younger brother Ferney, Ferney’s friend Dennis Baca, his sister Gloria, and his niece Janice – speak candidly and emotionally about Willie, and about the tragedies and struggles of their own lives
