Blind guitar playing street performer is led by a boy past prostitutes on Tijuana street just a few hundred meters from the US border in Mexico. The prostitutes are called, La Paraditas (Young ones who stand against the wall). Young prostitutes, many from Mexico's impoverished rural south and Central America, line up for selection of passing male customers during midday, in the La Coahuila red light district, which is just a couple of hundred meters from the border fence, Tijuana, Mexico. Some of the women who fail to make the crossing to the US for work end up here as prostitutes. Prostitution is legal in Tijuana and limited to three "zones of tolerance".
