Los buscadores de migrantes perdidos en el desierto de Sonora
José María Rodero and Alberto Ortega with Daniel Pardo
–
Cineteca Rosalío Solano
According to the International Organization for Migration, hundreds of migrants disappear and die each year in the Sonoran Desert between Arizona and California; this makes it the most dangerous overland migration route in the world. A brave group of people, known as the Desert Eagles, dedicate their weekends to looking for migrants lost in this hostile territory, where temperatures can reach 50ºC and dehydration is the main cause of death. José María Rodero, from BBC Mundo, accompanies members of this team on one of their expeditions, in which they hope to rescue people before they perish, something that is not always possible. One of the members of the Eagles, Alberto Ortega, will be present. In conversation with Daniel Pardo, BBC Mundo journalist.
