100 Kilos

The truth behind the CIA dope dealings...

Based on a true story, in the early 1980's, during the early stages of the Central American civil wars, the U.S. Government petitioned a group of young, black men from the ghetto to bring drugs into the impoverished community of South Central L.A. With the intention of supporting the Contra Rebels in Nicaragua, and thereby bringing Nicaragua back into the US' sphere of influence, the CIA began a conspiracy in which it traded guns to the Central American rebels in exchange for large supplies of cocaine. 100 Kilos chronicles the rise and fall of the "Freeway Boyz"; this infamous group of young men rode the crest of success through the 1980's making millions of dollars pushing cocaine on the streets of South Central Los Angeles.
