When the film West Side Story was released in 1961, New York's reviled Puerto Rican community gained some visibility and, over time, both in Spanish Harlem and the Bronx, neighborhoods plagued by poverty, drugs and crime, Hispanic identity was reborn and strengthened, thanks to a syncretic and intentionally popular music that eventually conquered the entire city.

This documentary takes place on Solstice-5, a planet whose resources are exploited by the Continental Alliance to build gigantic machines and warships. However, as the Alliance becomes too expensive to run, the operation is deemed unmanageable. Despite bombing attempts to shut down the factories in production, the machines remain unstoppable. The planet's workers, far from home, feel abandoned.
