Taking a stab at freelance journalism, Ryan Jordan tackles the legend of La Llorona, a ghostly woman from colonial days who drowned her children near San Juan Capistrano Mission. At the old Spanish mission, he sees documentation in dusty manuscripts that seems to support the legend. He also encounters skepticism. Pressing further, he interviews the city historian who directs him to the residents of the old town alongside the creek near the mission. The local people have their stories of the cursed woman. These tales and evidence of sightings compel him to investigate the creek where the ghastly deaths supposedly occurred many years ago. What Ryan encounters down alongside the flowing water of the creek challenges his perceptions of reality.
