Colombia: Cocaine’s Battleground

This documentary reveals just how divisive the 40-year Colombian civil war has become. It ventures behind government spin and FARC guerilla secrecy to interview army commanders, public officials, Colombian journalists, drug cartel paramilitaries, and ordinary citizens who are literally caught in a crossfire. Testimonials from impoverished farmers—who have essentially no other options than to grow coca—clearly show that in a country producing 80 percent of the world’s cocaine, peace will come only after radical social change and a major reduction in global consumption of the drug. (60 minutes)
