An intimate coming-of-age story, Waterberry Tears follows Goyo (Raul Rodriguez), a gay teen in a Mexican immigrant family who lives among the migrant farmers of California's Coachella Valley.

Matters get even worse when Goyo and his twin sister Rosa (Mayra Gil) fall in lust with the same guy - a masculine, ruggedly handsome farmhand named Lucio (Daniel Lugo).
