It's a random accumulation of pecuilar things. Still a must see, because the stuff you see is quite impressive in a negative way, but there's no order in the way the stuff is presented.

If you are interested in Venezuela or not or you like documentaries please watch this. Incredible pictures and conversations. I believe most of us "normal" people never saw something like this. This is the reality in Venezuela ... I lived there for more than 16 years and was lucky that never nothing bad happen to me ... And I walked in those barrios .. (Petare, Propatria, Las Brisas, Carapita, Junquito ect.) My respect to the guy who filmed it and made this possible !

Superb documentary and hands down to Andres for such an amazing film. Unbelievable state of Venezuela's prison system and how gangs rule inside each compound! Also, shocking the way Andres and his team infiltrated the Chavista apparatus! A must see!
