For anyone interested in knowing more about the drug war in Mexico, I recommend Anabel Hernández' 'Narcoland' (journalistic investigation) and Watt and Zepeda's 'Drug War Mexico' (academic). They both offer insights into the history of the cartels and the important roles played by Mexican and US intelligence agencies in forming these groups during the Cold War.
In this episode of *VICE Talks Film*, guest host Kathryn Bigelow interviews filmmaker Matthew Heineman about his Sundance award winning documentary, _Cartel Land_.
Great interview. Just watched the film. Real eye opener. Theres a lot to pull from the film. It's sick to see the government can't help out there own people. No one can be trusted. Everyone needs to check this documentary out. Being a Mexican American, it's depressing to realize what my parents country has become.
One thing I particularly noticed in this film is the language the people use for one another. Degrading insults, threats of punishment and responsibility aversive "office talk" (I had to do it/Superiors orders/It is the law) is one of the largest factors that contribute to the cycle of violence. I think if they learned to talk more clearly with one another by using NVC, it could help them find a common language and stop this horror on all sides.
AA69ist Have some empathy for fucks sake. The guys are as human as you are and were just unlucky enough to be born into an environment that encouraged them to join the drug trade so that them and their family wouldn't die from no money to buy food and shelter. Treating them like shit and calling them names will keep the cycle of violence going as they find out that the people who caught him don't see him as a human being, thus no opportunity to reintegrate into society. Fucking shortsighted idiots.
Noooo, nooooo, nooooo, weed is not the same. It is organically like that. ALL other drugs that are illegal are synthetics, because they are chemically produced. For weed you don't need to do anything to it. It will grow like that and we have cannibinoid receptors in our brain, we have thc receptors in our brain, that meth shit is not organically produced meaning you have to do something to it. And we don't have meth molecules naturally produced in our bodies. Don't mix them. So your saying alcohol is not a drug?
That VICE interviews Bigelow is a bummer to me. Didn't we all learn from "Zero dark 30"? Now she is able to spread a "truth" about the war on drugs and helping us realize us miltary aid for central america is good? Vice, you just unmasked yourself. Welcome to teh main stream, welcome to the list of media just repeating US politics talking points
Do a documentary about Fast and Furious. Gunwalking", or "letting guns walk", was a tactic of the United States Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), which ran a series of sting operations[2][3] between 2006[4] and 2011[2][5] in the Tucson and Phoenix area where the ATF "purposely allowed licensed firearms dealers to sell weapons to illegal straw buyers, hoping to track the guns to Mexican drug cartel leaders and arrest them."[6] These operations were done under the umbrella of Project Gunrunner, a project intended to stem the flow of firearms into Mexico by interdicting straw purchasers and gun traffickers within the United States.[7] The Jacob Chambers Case began in October 2009 and eventually became known in February 2010 as "Operation Fast and Furious"
Drugs are allowed into the US because of deals the DEA has made with the Sinaloa Cartels. If Americans stop getting high there would be no drug cartel.
Super powerful. I just moved back from living in Mexico City DF for 3 years as a teacher. Even in DF we were protected from the depth of what was really happening miles from la ciudad. I been in the middle of marches on Reforma about the 43 students. I constantly ask my Mexican friends why the country has not fallen into civil war. Most feel it is apathy. "I have a job. I have enough." Change does not come easily. Heart crushing.
and u would think the Mexican government would back up this movement.....couldn't be further from the truth....they have gone as far as openly use their army and federal police to stop this movement....maybe u should look into that as well, it would make a really good fallow-up....
Barack Smith The border is under 2,000 miles long. If our govt. really wanted to stop drugs coming over, it would be done. Put some military down there, we could have a soldier every 300yds on guard towers for a fairly low cost(considering our military budget). We can easily even stop tunneling under the border with sensors to alert when the tunnels are within 300ft of the border. The fact is that despite what they say, our Govt. does not want to stop the drug flow. Too much money is made from it, and a large portion goes to U.S. citizens and Govt. officials. Not to mention how it keeps a steady flow of funds going to the judicial and prison systems.

VICE well done..... IMHO
VICE does kathryn bigelow know that she was given a lot of misinformation from the CIA on her movie "zero dark thrity?"
Edward Bernayse666 what do you mean? What was misinformation?
The best cartel related footage I have ever seen, really good job.
DIMEX VIVE wow a positive comment, {vs the ignorance, hate and punk ass dumbasses}
gracias
SenorPescador Johnson 👌👌
Like 5yr footage....
one of the best documentary i ever seen thought me about people in power
The story on the border was so boring. The real interesting and action packed was down with the autodefensas. Because THAT'S where the shit got real.
Great interview, can you tell me when and how i can watch this in the UK ?

This documentary was very shocking, Matthew Heineman is a great journalist and documentary director.

***** Where can I watch this dude?
***** Yes, you're completely right. I'm sure if they don't use naughty language then the violence will stop(Are you fucking stupid?). Troll
AA69ist I can't tell if he's serious either lmao
Tywin Lannister I thought you died?!

Fucking shortsighted idiots.
Genius
so legalize all drugs and jut like weed the smuggling stops...
Noooo, nooooo, nooooo, weed is not the same. It is organically like that. ALL other drugs that are illegal are synthetics, because they are chemically produced.

We need to kill all cartel lords to end the drug trafficking also militaries mexico to keep killing them and steal all there wealth and power
Ismael Estrada how about kill all the american drug addicts.
Song Of Lahore should have took its place in the Oscar for Best Documentary Feature
Those bloody flies!

sounds like belfast to me
Cool story but there's one fly around his head the whole interview and it is extremely distracting!

I hate how smug this interview felt.

i had just finished watching this and the DEVIL WINS good man will never win thats the lesson in this documentary
telemundo is going to be pissed about this!
Scott travis and fox doesnt want to see one about fast and furrius.
Telemundo won't be mad they got to many dummies watching their trash...
and u would think the Mexican government would back up this movement.....couldn't be further from the truth....they have gone as far as openly use their army and federal police to stop this movement....maybe u should look into that as well, it would make a really good fallow-up....
Mexican cartel towns: Libertarian Paradise
Implement Martial Law in Mexico = No more cartel
Robin MX Nope. That fantasy disregards the fact that Mexico is deeply corrupt.
***** That anger tho. So mad
***** Oh yeah? When is the last time you bribed a cop to get out of a bullshit traffic stop?
***** bull shit
This is why the second amendment is so important.
Ger Vas No, so that people can defend themselves from government or in the absence of it.
Ger Vas really?
Ger Vas #killallmen
Ger Vas After doing some research - "defence against the tyranny of gov't" is exactly correct.
If the US did not have guns this would not be happening!!!
Sure the U.S will help, another Fast and Furious would do just fine.
Seems Donald Trump has a point after all..
Lol. Duhh
Barack Smith Idiot -_-
Barack Smith I was just thinking the same exact thing

Strangely enough this film increased my faith in God.
