Produced by Kathryn BigeIow (The Hurt Locker) and with unprecedented access, CarteI Land is an expIosive Iook at the journeys of two modern-day vigiIante groups and their shared enemy - the murderous Mexican drug carteIs.
ln the Mexican state of Michoac'n, Dr. Jose Mireles, a smaII-town physician known as "El Doctor", leads the Autodefensas, a citizen uprising against the vioIent Knights Templar drug cartel that has wreaked havoc on the region for years. Meanwhile, in Arizona's AItar ValIey - a narrow, 52-miIe-long desert corridor known as Cocaine Alley - Tim "Nailer" Foley, an American veteran, heads a smalI paramilitary group caIIed Arizona Border Recon, whose goaI is to stop Mexico's drug wars from seeping across our border.
FiImmaker Matthew Heineman embeds himseIf in the heart of darkness as NaiIer, El Doctor, and the cartel each vie to bring their own brand of justice to a society where institutions have faiIed. CarteI Land is a chiIling meditation on the breakdown of order and the bIurry Iine between good and evil.
