CGiii Comment

A light-hearted look at illegal immigration!?!

Hitch-hiking from a nudist beach to the dream of Paris...meeting gay truckers, randy women and weird employers along the way.

Ill-conceived from start to finish...it really is an insultingly bad treatment of a worryingly sad situation.
