Rude Awakening

In 1969, a group of hippies headed by Jesus (Cheech Marin) and Fred (Eric Roberts) are united in their idealistic desires for peace and free love. Constantly harassed by a vindictive detective, they flee to Central America. There they stay until 20 years later, when some papers fall into their possession which they believe to be vital to world peace. So back to New York they go, to find to their disgust that all their friends have turned into uptight yuppies, interested only in money and fashion. Vainly they attempt to rouse passions for saving the environment on a student campus, only to be removed so the students can continue with their lessons! The detective is still trailing them, and the now diverse group must unite to try to stop what they believe will be a war.
