Plot: Maria wants to introduce Nick to his uncle, the powerful Senator Pablo Escobar. First intrigued by the humanitarian actions of this charismatic man, Nick finally see behind the scenes: drug trafficking supported by unscrupulous violence. But it is already too late to turn back, since the celebration of her engagement to Maria is imminent and that Pablo Escobar demands absolute loyalty, especially from members of his immediate family.

Absolute power corrupts absolutely so. Will grant all rights necessarily encourages abuse, politics, where democratic rules can be easily circumvented if public opinion is sluggish enough or favorable to the officer, and a fortiori in the parallel universe of organized crime where it is sufficient to apply without qualms violence to increase its influence. Alas, the film often shows cautious when it comes to discuss these exceptional destiny.

For example their quality has nothing edifying. These came under the sign of the transgression of social and legal status quo lives to serve more as a warning that should not be imitated. Parts of the public nonetheless appropriate the gangster epics like Scarface Brian De Palma. At the same time, those films still strive for the creation of myths, as far from reality as tales of religious hero of war or a humanitarian cause whatsoever. A more common approach is that of identification via an ordinary individual, both fascinated and frightened by the criminal acts he discovers.
