In June of 2004, Mexico City witnessed one of the largest marches in its history as citizens protested the climate of insecurity that has become so pervasive in their country. Notwithstanding the public outcry, the following year the United Nations declared Mexico to have the highest incidence of reported kidnappings in the world, leading Russia and Columbia. !Ya Basta! is a feature-length documentary film that describes the current climate of insecurity in Mexico, explores its origins, and offers a gripping look at the daily life of Mexican citizens under a constant threat of abduction.

Ricardo Ainslie is a native of Mexico City, Mexico and a psychologist-psychoanalist who uses films, books, and exhibits to capture community conflicts and experiences.
