Synposis

The Canadian documentary Julien Elie traces a journey through different cases that show the terrible risks that living in Mexico entails. Passing through Ciudad Juárez, Mexico City, Ecatepec, Veracruz, Tamaulipas and Guerrero, the stories that are told illustrate the panorama of a country where being a woman, a student, a priest, a journalist, an activist or simply being in a place at a certain time, can imply being a victim of disappearance, murder or torture.
