A visual demonstration of the "war on drugs" policy being carried out in various regions of Latin America. In Brazil, Mexico and Colombia, three direct victims of the violence of this system join forces to alert and raise awareness of the catastrophic public security situation in their respective countries. The film is exactly the right distance from emotion and reflection.
The documentary follows Brazilian activist Raul Santiago, who has founded several social projects as a human rights defender; Mexican photojournalist Beto Walls, who covers social movements throughout Latin America and lives with the constant threat of being a journalist in the most dangerous country to practice this profession; and Teresita Gaviria, founder of Madres de La Candelaria and mother of Juan Camilo, who disappeared 18 years ago, a victim of state violence in Colombia.
