More DescriptionXiamara and Judith work multiple jobs saving for university tuition for entry into the high paying tech jobs available everywhere. They have a sponsor for the fall semester at the university, less than a year away. They must pay to play.Frustrated with their frugal hand-to-mouth existence, Xiamara finds a short cut believing it will work. She takes their savings and buys a boat, convinced it's a sailboat in the rough. Judith believes her partner's either fleeced or stealing her funds like everyone else. She demands to either see the magic beans or go to Jack and the Beanstalk to get their money back. Xiamara must convince Judith to show her the viability of the project. Judith reluctantly accepts the challenge and becomes the front person to hustle day tourists coming off the big cruise ships. Their business grows in fits and starts but some day tourists simply can't help but like these two feisty girls working to earn their fall tuition. With a couple of lucky breaks things seem to be rolling their way and their dream is nearly in reach. Jealous hostility from an unlikeable competitor presents a risk the girls hadn't anticipated. They align with fallen competitors and save the best for last. Fortune might smile upon them when the storm clears.
