Filmed in Texas and Mexico, this documentary covers all aspects of the situation on the southern border of the United States. Being a Texan from the south central part of the state, I have been well aware of the lawlessness along the border and in Mexico for most of my life. I really don't think people in other parts of the country have the slightest idea of the carnage that threatens to spill over into the rest of the country, but they need to be informed. This very well done documentary is somethng everyone should see.

Ms. Logan is an excellent reporter, and has a lot of heart and compassion, covering the plight of the victims of smuggling and human trafficking in such a way that separates this human crisis from the political rhetoric on both sides of the aisle. The episode with the church and people in Roma, Texas, really touched my heart and caused me to question my own assumptions.

There's a lot of evil going on in Mexico, and this documentary shows the resulting carnage in all it's graphic horror. And it's necessary. This stuff has been going on for decades, as any Texan who's lived down here for that long can tell you. People need to get slapped upside the head with a big fat reality sandwich, and that's the purpose.

The only thing that I would like to have seen is some investigative reporting done on exactly who or what was behind the immigrant crisis of 2017-18. I hardly think the hundreds of thousands of people in various South American countries just simultaneously decided to up and head to the United States. Someone or some organization was certainly behind it, and they certainly did not have humanitarian motives.

It was the day after Christmas, and I wanted something light and funny. This was perfect for that. The hubby didn't like it, but oh well.
