Synopsis
Raphayet and Moises, both hailing from the indigenous Wayuu family in northern Colombia, grows a steady business by selling marijuana to American youth. That doesn’t seem to be an issue for Ursula, the local matriarch of the family, until Moises goes rogue in the middle of a deal. A fratricidal war breaks out and put their lives, culture and traditions at the verge of cessation.
