In August 2013 Melissa Reid and Michaella McCollum were jailed for six years and eight months each for trying to smuggle 1.5 million pounds worth of cocaine from Peru to Spain. Their arrest highlighted that Peru has taken over from Colombia as the cocaine capital of the world.
This remarkable documentary has secured unprecedent access to every link in the drugs chain across Peru. In the film, the gangs who are sending the mules speak on camera; from those who groom them to those who make the bags for transportation.
