This is a fantastic documentary. The story sticks to a specific narrative and, unlike the WTMT/Granito/500 Years trilogy, is factually correct and does not indulge in the thrum of self-righteousness and self-congratulation.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

immigrants that should or should not be in the U.S., it puts perspective on the kinds of true criminals that our country really should be going after - versus spending resources to apprehend those with minor traffic violations. It's not easy to watch but it's worth it.
