La Guerra Perdida (1x90’) is a documentary that explores, from various perspectives, the effectiveness of the War on Drugs 

La Guerra Perdida (1×90’) is a documentary that explores, from various perspectives, the effectiveness of the war on drugs over nearly a century. It examines how cartels have grown despite government programs aimed at their eradication.

“The documentary uses interviews to question whether this has been a losing battle, considering the growing movement to decriminalize or legalize certain drugs, like cannabis, across the United States, Latin America, and Europe,” explained David Impelluso, president of One Movie One Film, producer of the film, whose script is by Gustavo Bolívar (Sin Senos No Hay Paraíso) who was also the director.

“Through interviews, the documentary asks if this was not a lost war, because now everywhere, both the United States, Latin America, and Europe, are lifting the ban and criminalization of certain drugs, such as cannabis,” explains David Impelluso, president of One Movie One Film, producer of the film, scripted by Gustavo Bolívar (Sin Senos no hay Paraíso) who was also the director.

Among those interviewed for this production are:

-Gustavo Petro, President of Colombia
-Juan Manuel Santos, former president of Colombia and Nobel Prize winner
-Francia Márquez, VP of Colombia
-Daniel Quintero, mayor of Medellín, Colombia
-Michael B Hancock, Mayor of Denver, Colorado
-David Nissman, former US Attorney
-Martín Rodríguez, executive director of the Institute for Cannabis Control in Uruguay
-Diego Olivera –former general secretary of the National Drug Board in Uruguay
-Sebastián Marroquín (Juan Pablo Escobar) – son of Pablo Escobar
-Nicolás Escobar –nephew of Pablo Escobar
-Carlos Vives Jr. -cannabis farmer
-Alexander López –senator of Colombia
-Luis Fernando Velazco –senator of Colombia
-Feliciano Valencia – Indigenous Senator of Colombia
-Fabiola Piñacué –former Indigenous mayor of Páez, Cauca
-Pepe Obreton –owner of Euflora
-Diego García –Open Society
-Daniela Montillo Morrero – Human Rights activist in Tumaco
-Carlos Alberto Angulo Góngora –a social leader in the municipality of Tumaco
-Fernando Cuervo Torres – territorial director of Corpoamazonia
-Rodrigo Botero -head of Conservation and Development of the Amazon
-Lucas Nosiglia –president of Farmacéutica Avicanna.

“The documentary features interviews with various political figures from the US, Colombia, Mexico, and Uruguay. It also includes people already working in the cannabis industry, such as Carlos Vives’ son, who discusses the positive impact of medical marijuana. Additionally, US companies highlight the job creation and crime reduction associated with legalization. Finally, the documentary explores the environmental impact of using chemicals to eradicate marijuana plants, particularly in the Amazon,” said Impelluso.

The project took them a couple of years to complete. “Filming this documentary required extensive travel, including trips to the Amazon rainforest to interview key individuals. It was a challenging process, but the film is complete, and Spanglish Movies, led by Gustavo Rodríguez Aparicio, is currently handling distribution.”

SPANGLISH MOVIES DISTRIBUTES IT FOR SVOD
“We’re honored to participate in this highly ambitious project. It features testimonies from Latin American presidents, mayors, and US authorities, tackling the controversial issue of drug legalization. We hope this documentary and the diverse perspectives it presents will shed light on the problem and contribute to potential solutions. It’s a high-quality documentary,” Gustavo Aparicio, CEO of Spanglish Movies, the company distributing La Guerra Perdida to SVOD and premium streaming.
