"Mexican Moon" (2021) unfolds in a small Texas town suffocating under the financial grip of powerful drug cartels. Imagine a community where livelihoods are threatened, and a Vietnam veteran becomes a direct casualty, losing his job at the local garage due to the cartel's influence. However, fate takes an unexpected turn when he learns about a significant sum of money – one hundred thousand dollars – buried by the cartel in a false grave. This knowledge ignites a dangerous opportunity, forcing the veteran to confront the criminal underworld that has encroached upon his home. The film likely explores themes of desperation, resilience, and the lengths one man will go to reclaim his life and his community from the clutches of organized crime.
