"INSIDE MIAMI"

A descent into the hidden side of Miami, which is the most populous metropolis in the Southeastern United States. Miami is a city of paradoxes, a land of big conflict and violence that is experiencing difficulties due to immigration, that mostly concern Hispanics/Latinos, but also because of the gap between poor and wealthy people, coming from South America too, that by now consider Miami as a top choice for second homes and the most important city in the world after New York. Miami has a myriad of Hispanic cultures that include Cubans, Puerto Ricans, Venezuelans, Uruguayans, Mexicans, Columbians, Nicaraguans and many others. This confluence of extremely different kinds of energies, makes Miami as a perfect mirror of the U.S. as a dynamic nation of immigrants, still looking for the american dream.
