Narco Cultura

Narco Cultura delves into a disquieting reality faced by many Mexicans and Latinos in the Americas: an allure towards narco-trafficking as a means to escape poverty and attain success. This modern phenomenon has created a new American dream, fueled by the war on drugs, where drug lords and their luxurious lifestyles are idolized as symbols of power and fame. The film explores this alarming trend from an intimate perspective, shedding light on the vicious cycles of addiction to money, drugs, and violence that have been rapidly entrenching themselves along the U.S.-Mexico border. Through its immersive approach, Narco Cultura highlights the complex social dynamics at play as it confronts the harsh truths behind this new form of societal aspiration.
