War veteran Nico takes it on the road hauling fruit to avenge the death
of his brother at the hands of vicious and amoral produce shylock Mike
Figlia. En route he is "befriended" by beautiful and exotic Rica, who
turns out to be in league with Figlia and initially betrays Nico.
Defeated and brutally beaten, Nico is forced first to fight for
survival, and then for his ability to trust Rica, for whom he still has
feelings. Can a betrayed man on a failed mission give up his mission
and forgive his betrayer?
