Inspired by J. M. Coetzee's Disgrace,El Ni ño tracks the survival of one woman and a young, undocumented migrant as they journey through the no-man's-land of a remote southwestern desert.
Honey hasn't seen her mother, Marianne, in more than two years. She drives deep into the once-prosperous border region of the Oro Desert for a surprise visit, only to discover that Marianne has vanished.

And then there is Baez, Marianne's wizened Shepherd-coyote mix, whose death and life intimately intersect with Honey and Chavez's search for Marianne and who tells the story of the Oro Desert...
