6.4Officer Blanca Bravo arrives in Juarez, Mexico — a grim nexus of corporate colonialism and sexual tourism — to investigate a rash of killings targeting female migrant workers. But with no help from the locals, bringing the responsible parties to justice becomes a frustrating exercise. As Bravo rails against indifference and local corruption, she finds herself on a collision course with Mickey Santos, a Mexican mogul with a taste for young prostitutes.

Das Paradies der Mörder (span. Originaltitel: El traspatio; internationaler Titel: Backyard) ist ein mexikanischer Film aus dem Jahr 2009, der in der US-Grenzstadt Ciudad Juárez spielt und auf den dortigen Frauenmorden basiert. Die mexikanische Schauspielerin Ana de la Reguera spielt darin die Polizistin Blanca Bravo, die die durch die lokale Polizei darbenden Ermittlungen in Schwung bringen soll. Insofern spielt sie dieselbe Rolle wie Jennifer Lopez (als Lauren Adrian) in dem US-amerikanisch-britischen Film Bordertown, der 2006 uraufgeführt wurde.
