Senorita Justice, one of the first features from the low-budget production house Breakaway Films. Yancy Mendia plays the role of Anna Rios, a lawyer who negotiates property agreements in the city of Miami. Anna learns that her brother was murdered in a gang-related attack and learns that her father had emotionally broken down. Not capable of opposing the call of her home, she proceeds to the vile streets where she was raised to look into the subject. She takes a sabbatical from work, and heads back to the barrio she once knew, sending her father on vacation so she can get down to business. It isn't long before she enlists the help of a loose-cannon childhood friend, named Vanessa (Mirtha Michelle), and rekindles an old flame, named Hector (Kalex), all in the name of avenging her murdered brother. She meets two female cops, Garcia (Edith González) and Martinez (Eva Longoria) whom are investigating the murder, but are renowned less for their detection skills. Both Garcia and Martinez become persuaded into believing that one of Anna's childhood friends, Hector, witnessed the slaying. He, however, became unwilling to cooperate.

Not satisfied with letting the police handle the investigation alone, Anna becomes Señorita Justice. She sheds her expensive city clothes for street clothes, embarks on a one-senorita mission of vengeance, crossing paths with scumbag after scumbag and beating the Miracle Whip out of them. But Anna's search for the killers lead her to a sleazy gang leader named Mo (Michael Francis) who turns out to be under the thumb of a greedy local businessman, named Manny Sanchez (Tito Puente Jr.) whom is determined to instigate a gang war to drive them out of the neighborhood for a real estate business. Anna eventually finds herself in over-her-head when she gets persuaded not only by Detective Garcia, but also Mo's gang members, and a ruthless female Yakuza assassin hired by the real villains of the story which leads right back to her law firm where Anna works.

Señorita Justice was created as part of Breakaway Films' stated mission to distribute Latino/urban features for the home-video market.
