Border Crossing: Some commentary from the movie, Wetback, and AMNQ




On the website for the movie, Wetback, it says that 3,000 people embark on this journey every day and less than 300 make it to their final destination.

"We pass a sign: LEAVING THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA."
-AMNQ, page 12

I wonder if some of the illegal immigrants aren't aware how dangerous their journey is? They make so many sacrifices and I can just imagine them getting to the U.S. which has one of the hardest borders to cross, and then being caught and sent back hundreds of miles home. That would really stink...majorly.
