About this product
Product Information
This gritty, grueling documentary travels "inside" of the drug trade of Latin America - specifically Mexico and
Colombia - for a firsthand look at cocaine buying and selling on the black market, and the explosive violence that
this often triggers. It hones in on a courageous journalist who ventures through the deadly Mexican city of Ciudad
Juárez, where he photographs some of the most gruesome drug-related homicides in memory. The film then ventures to
the frontlines of Colombian crime for a glimpse of drug lords doing whatever it takes to smuggle illicit, highly
addictive Benzoylmethyl Ecgonine beyond the country's borders.

War on Cocaine
Head to Colombia, the frontline in the War on Cocaine. Despite the billions of dollars poured into the war on drugs
there, the government hasn’t been able to stop the producers who are protected by a vast, thick jungle. Adding to
that is the ever-changing face of the “Colombian” drug-trafficker that has police and military forces scrambling to
keep up.
Inside Mexico's Drugs War
Since the Mexican government openly declared war on drug cartels in 2007, some regions in the country have become
more dangerous than Baghdad. Step Inside Mexico’s Drugs War for a frightening look at what they are up against,
including police corruption and execution-style killings. Are hidden cameras in police stations and military power
enough to end this war?
