“Children Behind The Wall” (working title)

The shocking stories about a new form of slavery for the children and teenagers in Tijuana, Mexico – Drug addiction and prostitution…The untold tales behind the U.S.- Mexican border…

 

“  The preview grips you the instant you see the empty gaze of the first lost child who’s seen too much and has lived way too far beyond his years. You immediately grasp the need for this story to unfold as you cling to the glimmer of hope this piece so brilliantly portrays that may still remain for any one of these children. ”
