And you can bet it'll be the best summer you've ever had. The film's synopsis: Illegal Invisible Ignited tells the story of Franky DeLuna, a Hispanic who dreams of being an inventor but that was brought to the United States illegally when he was a little boy. He struggles to find his place in a country that requires him to not exist and is deported when he contacts the police in order to prevent a rape. As he tries to make a new home in Mexico, Franky discovers the corruption of the cartels and must decide whether it is better to live in a country where his life is in danger or a country that doesn't want him.
