Abstract
:
San Jose Mercury muhabiri Gary Webb'in gerçek hayat öyküsünden yola çıkılan öyküde, Nikarugua’daki isyancılar ve California merkezli uyuşturucu ithalatıyla ilgili olarak CIA ile kurduğu sıkı ilişki sayesinde uyuşturucu trafiğini ifşa eden gazetecinin diken üzerindeki hayatı aktarılıyor. Nick Schou'nun "Kill the Messenger: How the CIA's Crack-Cocaine Controversy Destroyed Journalist Gary Webb adlı kitabında beyazperdeye aktarılan filmin yönetmenliğiniyse, ağırlıklı olarak televizyon piyasasına yönelik işlerle adını duyuran Michael Cuesta üstleniyor!
Webb stumbles onto a story which leads to the shady origins of the men who started the crack epidemic on the nation's streets, and further alleges that the CIA was aware of major dealers who were smuggling cocaine into the U.S., and using the profits to arm rebels fighting in Nicaragua. Despite warnings from drug kingpins and CIA operatives to stop his investigation, Webb keeps digging to uncover a conspiracy with explosive implications.
