The creative process investigated the maquiladora and sexual tourism industries, and included community workshops in Tijuana , San Diego , and Tecate, exploring the experiences of women in the region. A gringo tour guide known as El Chamuco leads us on a journey to the other side of sexuality, deviance, and culture. 3 to 4 characters

Beginning from the calm last moments of Hank and Wendy's third date, Femme and Foe catapults into a moving portrait of traditional courtship focusing upon the seething emotions hidden beneath it. Reminiscence, sharing secrets and darker personas play pivotal roles as chit-chat degenerates into a gut-wrenching study of male/female dynamic.
