Eli buys some shoes off the back of a truck and then gets beat up by some Latinos driving by because he was in the wrong neighborhood. That represents his situation, he feels beat down in life. He then goes home and tells his brother if they don’t sell some shoes they won’t be able to make the rent. All Daniel cares about however is his singing. Things then flip to Kamila. There’s no food in her house because some people came over and ate everything and her sister doesn’t have lunch money for her either. She doesn’t go to school but goes to the shoe store instead. She sings a song with the lyric “Everything is going to be all right.” She’s still young and has a positive outlook on life despite her struggles.
