These "Crime Does Not Pay" series take serious issues and try to make the most hamfisted short they can possibly come up with. This one is probably one of the more tolerable ones since the moral argument is still relevant, and not hopelessly dated (unwed mothers! *gasp*) nor is it a simple black-and-white situation with no room for contemplation. Haha just kidding, the antagonists are actually straight up evil (a common trait in these films)

Shady characters smuggling illegal immigrants into America. This one gets quite harrowing at the end. Also, I think a spotted a couple of shots stolen from Contraband, or maybe they used the same stock footage.
