At the end of the doc, it had some interesting facts. "Remittances," or cash sent back South of the border, account for a huge majority of many Central American economies--in the billions, as IPU stated. That being said, illegals also spend over a billion dollars a year into our domestic economy, and continue to do the undesired work here. If they all left, our economy would stagnate, as many economists have already stated.

I've heard about that documentary and would like to see it.
