• Este video presenta un cuento ficticioso basado en la vida de un narcotraficante de cocaína colombiano, Jaime Caicedo, aquí conocido como Pedro Rey.

Este negocio llega a ser un imperio de enorme riqueza con todos sus peligros
• The fictional story of the first Colombian cocaine king is chronicled in this drama. It was the 1970s when Pedro Rey (Jaime Caicedo), a man of modest means, met an American Peace Corps volunteer named Harry. Together, the duo came up with a plan for large-scale exportation of cocaine to the United States-a feat made possible by a partnership with a noted Colombian chemist who mass-produced the powder. Their scheme was a success, but with Rey's riches came power that would have a tremendous impact on the government and his personal life
