COCAINE NATION PA

Cocaine is big business and getting bigger. Governments spend millions on a losing war against it, yet it'¬"s still the drug of choice in the West. In Cocaine Nation, Tom Feiling travels the trade routes from Colombia via Miami, Kingston, and Tijuana to London and New York. Cutting through the myths about the white trade, this is the story of cocaine as it'¬"s never been told before.

Tom Feiling is an award-winning documentary filmmaker. He spent a year working in South America where he made Resistencia: Hip-Hop in Colombia, which won numerous awards around the world. He now lives in London where he is a director for Justice for Colombia, which defends human rights in Colombia. Cocaine Nation is his first book.
