In the Mexican city of Juárez, close to the American border, a large number of young women have disappeared in recent years.

The documentary follows these unsolved and highly publicized crimes against women along the Mexico-U.S. border. The filmmakers integrate testimony from relatives, journalists, factory workers and police officials. The film draws attention to the horrors perpetrated against grieving parents still desperate for answers, showing up a disturbing web of corruption that reaches the highest levels of the Mexican government. |
