State of Silence (2024) Tribeca 2024


This is a look at the open season on journalists in Mexico as the cartels, business men and the government hunt and kill anyone who opposes them.

Disappointing and uniforming this film should be a warning to viewers about the dangers of an unchecked  government and corruption and crime instead it is a collection of the names of reporters with no clear indication of what they were covering when they were killed or threatened. Watching the film I found myself hopelessly lost as there was no explanation a to who anyone was or what we are really seeing.

I suspect that if you know about current events in Mexico this film may make some sense, but comeing from the outside I was totally lost.
