No Somos Nada / We are Nothing - Memory and Death on the Baja Highway
Along the 1,700 kilometres of the Baja Highway #1 - the single roadway running the length of the Baja peninsula, the route is marked by “altars de muertos” or “nichos”; the memorials to the victims of the highway and shrines to the saints who protect travellers.
