Documentary that follows DEA agent Don Ferrarone as he tries to stem the flow of drugs into the United States from Mexico. SHows the real work and real obstacles of the battle against drugs in America. Hampered by lack of cooperation from both Mexican and U.S. forces, limited by his own agency, and constantly battling the pervasive corruption that an illegal, multi-billion dollar industry breeds, Ferrarone still perseveres. Includes candid testimony from Ferrarone, gang members, Customs officials, and other agents.
