The film documents the first exhibition of Chicano artists held at the Los Angles County Museum of Art in 1974, and the exhibition "Murals of Aztlan: The Street Painters of East Los Angeles" at the Craft and Folk Art Museum of Los Angeles in 1981. The documentary captures the group's debates over art, politics and community, while it also reveals their experimentation with spray can techniques, found objects, and installation art as well as their self-conscious efforts to develop Chicano icons.
