Cartel Land
Details
In the Mexican state of Michoacán, Dr. Jose Mireles emerges as a hero leading a citizen uprising against the brutal drug cartel that has plagued the region for years. As the founder of the Autodefensas, a self-defense group, Mireles and his small army fight back against the cartels, risking their lives to restore peace and protect their communities.
Simultaneously, on the U.S. side of the border, Tim Nailer Foley, a war veteran, leads a paramilitary group called Arizona Border Recon. Foley and his team patrol the desolate borderlands, aiming to prevent the drug wars from crossing into American territory. As tension escalates, they engage with both cartels and undocumented migrants attempting to cross the border, blurring the lines between vigilante justice and protecting their homeland.
Cartel Land offers a thought-provoking exploration of the complex dynamics between crime, corruption, and justice. Through unprecedented access, the film exposes the devastating consequences of the drug trade while raising questions about the consequences of taking matters into one's own hands. With its raw footage and intimate interviews, the documentary provides a harrowing look into the real-life battle against drug cartels, showcasing the immense bravery and moral dilemmas faced by those on the front lines.
