According to the UN, Mexico experiences the most kidnappings in the world (about 10 per day), and this fascinating, shocking documentary expertly examines real cases, interviewing courageous victims with unbelievable but all too common stories and including footage from hostage videos to uncover some hidden truths. The reportedly corrupt police force and inefficient judicial system leave Mexico increasingly plagued by these atrocities. ”Ya Basta! brilliantly explores this phenomenon and the horror caused not only by the abductors themselves, but by the longstanding refusal of the government to tackle what is fast becoming a human rights disaster.
