Titre : Honest heroes make up an indigenous police force

Légende : 16-05-2012. Guerrero, Mexico.
Surveillance of a dance during festivities at San Luis Acatlan. The "official" municipal policemen are in the background, dressed in blue. The two froces rarely work in the same location like this. Relations between the two police forces are inexistent, even strained. They generally ignore each other and barely give a nod at the dance entrance.
