Episode 1
In 2014, in Mexico, 43 students disappeared. What happened, and who is responsible? A local drug cartel and corrupt police were blamed, but the evidence points towards a much wider conspiracy.
On 26 September 2014, a group of students were violently attacked on their way to a protest in Mexico City. Forty-three young men were taken away by municipal police and have never been seen again.
This documentary hears how federal investigators initially blamed corrupt local police and a local drug cartel for the attacks, but in the weeks and months that followed, civil unrest grew as the parents of the missing boys became increasingly suspicious of the official investigation.
Featuring survivors, families of the missing and exclusive interviews with Tom谩s Zer贸n De Lucio, the fugitive former head of the Mexican Criminal Investigation Agency (CIA) and Omar G贸mez Trejo, the exiled former special prosecutor.
