    “Tepito” in Mexico City - arguably the most dangerous black market in the world. At first glance, the no-go zone looks like any other market - yet the main thing you’ll find lurking down the alleyways behind it is death. It’s ruled by the “La Union” gang. The Tepito cartel deals in drugs, weapons and assassinations - anything that you can use money to buy.
    The gang plays cat and mouse with the special units. And anyone caught in the crossfire is risking their life. Residents also call the area “Barrio Bravo” - the wild neighborhood.
    Estimates suggest that around eight kilos of cocaine and half a ton of marijuana are sold in the alleyways of the no-go zone of Tepito every weekend. It is a place where people pay up to fourteen thousand euros to hitmen for a single yet fatal bullet. A silent knife attack. Or a blast from a shotgun.
    The normal police force is barely able to keep the situation under control. According to statistics, Mexico City alone is short of over ten thousand officers. So, in their fight to stop the gangs, the authorities rely primarily on a special unit. Consisting of four hundred men in total, the troop is ready for action around the clock. And the gang members are prepared to kill anybody who might ruin their business.
    Tepito - a place that doesn’t play by society’s rules. Where the powerful “La Union” gang rules. And people die on a daily basis. It’s a daunting, deadly no-go zone!

    I an American and I used to live in Mexico, but not Mexico City. My Mexican friend and roommate would travel to Tepito every few weeks to obtain cheap jeans, aftershave or perfumes for his girlfriend. He also had worked in a bank within Tepito, so he knew the rules and what not to do. Once he asked me to go with him so that we could go to his parents' home in another part of the city afterwards for dinner.
    Upon arriving he told me to roll up the windows and lock the doors of the car. At each stop sign, we never came to a complete stop. We parked the car in a safer area and walked a few blocks to where we were going. Within seconds at the market, someone walked up to my roommate and demanded money, so my friend gave him a few coins. Not satisfied with the number of pesos, the robber grabbed my friend's necklace. No one said a word to me or even bothered me at all. After the robbery, we bought what we came to buy and left. Once we were far from Tepito, I joked that no one wanted to rob the Gringo wearing a Cruz Azul jersey-- Cruz Azul is the Mexico City's soccer team. When I asked my friend why he didn't try to stop the robbery, he said there were many people watching us at that moment.
    I have visited Mexico City many times since then, but I have no need to ever return to Tepito

    Having lived in Mexico for 4 years, in Mexico City no less, my partner at the time (me: American, he: Mexican) absolutely outlawed going to Tepito for any reason at any time. No ifs ands or buts. Even if I was accompanied, too dangerous. And it's wild because you can be in the cathedral or Zocalo and walk a block or two over, and without knowing you've entered a super dangerous place.

    I remember coming here when I was about 22 years old. I'm from the US but my dad lived in that area so he wanted to show us around. At first it was fine, everything seemed cool. But once the sun starts to set you really feel the tension. We started walking towards the outskirts of Tepito and let me tell you, I have never felt so unsafe in my life. Once I saw that even my dad felt uncomfortable I got scared. Some cops stopped us ( I guess you could tell we were tourists) and told us to leave the area ASAP.

It was not safe. They didn't manage to get anything from me but I was also astonished that no one on the street, including the police, seemed to care that it had happened.

      I want to travel to see the beauty of the world, but the risk of something unfortunate happening grows everyday. I'll still travel but I won't be as at ease as I was 10+ years ago.

Those cartel associates would literally cross back and forth the Arizona-Mexico border, armed to the teeth with American weapons.

We found a shop and the people were very nice. The gangsters selling drugs were polite and pointed us in the right direction. After we got our leather we wondered deeper and deeper into the market.

    I've been to Tepito probably 10 times, 2 of them I made vlogs. I don't think it's the no go zone this film is making it out to be. It is absolutely dangerous IF you are involved in that kind of illegal activity. But if you go to Tepito just looking to buy some knock offs during the day and stay the main streets your biggest risk is just pick pocketing. It's one of the busiest markets in the country, full of life, streetfood, dancing and a bunch of really fun bars in the street. You can buy 1.5L michaladas and drink them anywhere. I've gone with the most innocent backpacking girl and not once did they feel in danger and always have a great time. Me and my roommate would cruise through Tepito if we were bored and walking around Centro and not even think twice about it. It is unfortunate it gets this reputation for crime, Yes all the crime is true and present, but when you go and you aren't looking for trouble it can be really enjoyable!

    Dates back to the time of the aztecs. Originally named Teocultepitan, which the Spaniards shorten to Tepito. It has always been like this an informal market/outdoor swap meet (tianguis).

    i walked quickly through Tepito in 1981,knowing the risks, a white kid hippie with a camera. the hairdressers came out to wave and laugh at me. the classic whistles announced me. people looked. then it was a barren place, not market day, the tension was heavy and my walk was the old plaza and back into town. i knew it was a no go zone, and was quick. the modest ancient working class homes are now gone, but what i saw was priceless. who honors the lives of people. be respectful. be quick. in the old merced, i was stalked by a famous madman- enfuriated by my sight, i knew something was up, when everyone stopped work , smiling, watching me tracked. i almost made it to a police but escaped a beating by running circles around a truck. the shop keepers were quite amused by it all, and i would get no help. the officer came right over and saved my neck. i disappeared quickly .

    Sometimes, I think the police's "special task forces" sticks out like a sore thumb most of the time. Either alerting people or having them be an easy target.

    I've always wondered how these photographers/videographers have the resources to get to the bosses for interviews, but the police don't.... It just doesn't make sense. IMO, it proves that the police are 100% involved in protecting the criminals. If the videographers can get to them, the police could easily do so too, they just choose not to.

      The police don't "interview the bosses" because they wouldn't live to tell the story, seriously, your logic that the police are not
      Interviewing the bosses because they are protecting the cartels is pointless, these guys have zero fear of "Da Cops".

      @@nicolasrose3064 I think you’re missing the point. It’s not that police aren’t doing interviews, it’s the fact that they’re unable to catch these criminals in an unending cat and mouse chase, for decades at a time, whereas these videographers can easily access their locations and such. And it was even mentioned that police corruption is a huge problem so they have a point in saying that the police do in fact protect these criminals.
