I was interested in this because I thought it was a baseball documentary about a team in Mexico. It wasn't. It was anti Trump propaganda. The clip that had me turn it off was showing Trump saying some of the dangerous people who could illegally come into the country and they cut to mothers getting out of a van with their kids. Such trash. Not surprised the guy who made it used to work at VICE.

Típico documental donde pueden darle el lujo de hablar mal de un país. Si se sientes tan inseguros no visiten esos lugares bien pueden hacer sus eventos en ciudades más seguras como Detroit, Chicago St. Louis. We don't really need your bad publicity. Primero aprendan y miren "The Last Narc is a docuseries about the 1985 death of U.S. DEA agent Enrique "Kiki" Camarena. The series interviews DEA agents and witnesses to Camarena's death who state that he was murdered by Mexican drug lords, with the complicity of the CIA" Si existe toda esa violencia en México es por los millones que adictos en US. Si pueden detener (cigars) puros de Cuba porque no pueden detener las drogas. Gary Webb's "Dark Alliance" series boldly claimed the CIA knew about a U.S. drug trafficking scheme that ravaged the country's inner cities to fund Nicaragua's Contra rebels. Years later, he shot himself in the head. Y el payaso racita Ra y es una burla para el mundo f-him
I was surprised to see Laredo, Texas and Los Tecolotes being presented on a Showtime documentary, and having lived there as a long term transplant, I was eager to learn something that maybe I had missed. Unfortunately, the director's sappy storyline depicted Laredo and Los Tecolotes' circumstances in a fashion that left an unpleasant aftertaste which smacked of a flaccid Vice network production. In short, don't waste your time with this rapidly dated piece of work.
After reviewing the IMDB entry, I was not entirely surprised to discover the the producer/director, an Emmy award winning Andrew Glazer, was formerly a Vice network executive.

That was the clue that this was an agenda driven, political message production.
US/Mex relations are currently doing quite well, as a matter of fact.
Too bad - it could have been an interesting documentary, but instead was very difficult to watch.
