The filmmaker told Steward he was allowed to film those vigilantes after a long negotiation process. He convinced them he was there “not to pass judgment — I’m there to film what’s happening so that I can show it to the rest of the world, and it’s for the viewer to judge the rights and the wrongs and the merits of what they’re doing.”
