I watched this movie a couple of months ago and was actually very shocked about the drug smuggling world that I had always heard of but never thought much about. The images of girls swallowing 20-60 large heroin-filled capsules, flying to the United States, sneaking through customs and hoping to make it alive were difficult to watch to say the least. The movie showed a scary reality of girls having to choose between their own safety and risking their lives to make a little money for their families. I never realized what little control and how few options young women in some Latin American towns have.
This is an interesting website about the drug smuggling problem that exists between Latin America and the United States.
