Cartel Land
- Drama
- Documentary
In the Mexican state of Michoacán, Dr. Jose Mireles, a small-town physician known as "El Doctor," shepherds a citizen uprising against the Knights Templar, the violent drug cartel that has wreaked havoc on the region for years. Meanwhile, in Arizona's Altar Valley—a narrow, 52-mile-long desert corridor known as Cocaine Alley—Tim "Nailer" Foley, an American veteran, heads a small paramilitary group called Arizona Border Recon, whose goal is to halt Mexico’s drug wars from seeping across our border.
Cartel Land is a 2015 documentary-drama that follows two men on opposite sides of the U.S.-Mexico border fighting against drug cartels: Dr. Jose Mireles leading a citizen militia against the Knights Templar in Mexico, and American veteran Tim Foley commanding Arizona Border Recon in the Arizona desert. The film offers an unflinching look at the human cost of cartel violence and vigilante resistance.
