Desc: Rivera: Directed by Morten Parker. With Robert Rodriguez. A local union is in contract negotiations with a construction company. Working conditions currently are very poor and the construction workers union is trying to achieve concessions with reference not only to pay but to the general conditions under which they are required to work. Rivera, an outspoken member of the union, and the union president, Sanchez, are the principal representatives in the negotiations. On an especially rainy day a close associate, Alberto, slips and falls from a ladder on a high level in the unfinished building where they are working and is badly injured. The company finally agrees to improvements in the contract and Rivera relays this information ultimately to Alberto in the hospital where he is recuperating.
