Gloria
Gloria, recently released from prison, and just wanting to be left alone, visits a Puerto Rican friend one day, to find the family about to flee for its life from the Mafia - the husband having been a book-keeper for the gangs and who has a notebook which could reveal many financial secrets. Gloria finds herself unwillingly responsible for the safe-keeping of their seven-year-old son, who has his father's book.
