Walk The Line
From the same producer of the hit series ‘One Way’, Wei Du and her team present a new documentary, ‘Walk The Line’.
Chinese citizens are the fastest-growing group of illegal migrants entering the United States (US). For weeks, CNA followed some of them across South America, as they navigated a complex web of human smugglers, drug cartels, and border officials to reach the US southern border. The migrants’ perilous journey includes crossing the Darien Gap, a dense, paramilitary-controlled jungle that is one of the world’s most dangerous migration routes.
Walk The Line - Following Chinese Migrants’ Journey To US Border
From the same producer of the hit series ‘One Way’, Wei Du and her team present a new documentary, ‘Walk The Line’.
Chinese citizens are the fastest-growing group of illegal migrants entering the United States (US). For weeks, CNA followed some of them across South America, as they navigated a complex web of human smugglers, drug cartels, and border officials to reach the US southern border. The migrants’ perilous journey includes crossing the Darien Gap, a dense, paramilitary-controlled jungle that is one of the world’s most dangerous migration routes.
Walk The Line
To reach the Land of the Free, they embark on a most treacherous journey: the migrants first need to reach Ecuador, the country closest to the US that would grant Chinese passport holders visa-free entry. From there, they need to cross Colombia, Panama, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Honduras, Guatemala and Mexico, all illegally, to reach California.
In this documentary series, CNA correspondent Wei Du travels the route with the Chinese migrants, and try to understand why they’ve been driven to such desperation, and if the American Dream is all it’s made out to be.
