After a ruthless robber baron tears through their lives, a rough-and-tumble peasant and a polished heiress join forces in turn-of-the-century Mexico, turning themselves into a bank-robbing duo. Salma Hayek brings the grit to one half of the partnership, while Penélope Cruz is her unlikely counterpart from the other side of class and manners. Their push for revenge and justice puts them up against a brutal enforcer terrorizing local towns, as holdups, horseback escapes, and clashing personalities shape an uneasy alliance between two women who have almost nothing in common except what they’ve lost.
