The story
This half-hour documentary follows the journey of two prize-winning journalists from the Chicago Sun-Times, writer, Rick Sol and photographer, Henry Gill, as they make their way through South America investigating the business of cocaine. Their journey took them from the jungles of Peru to Miami International Airport. Along the way, they also explored the high-stakes business of marijuana in Columbia. This documentary consists entirely of black and white still photographs, along with the reporter's narration, and was a precursor to the work of Ken Burns. It was nominated for a Chicago Emmy Award for "Best investigative Report".
