Cocaine Cowboys (2006)

Released November 3rd in the US.
Filmed in Florida.
The story: In the very early 1970s, Miami Beach, Florida was a quiet town with not much money, opportunity or things going on.
When the mid-70s arrived, and the moneymaker called cocaine started showing its face, things quickly started to change.
Cocaine and the money that is brought into the sleepy town began seeing it thrive with new clubs and businesses, Cuban immigrants and everyone saw all this as exciting and new.
By the time the late 70s happened, things in Miami started to become dangerous.
With the cocaine dealers and their rivals being violent and stopping at no end to get what they want.
But come the 1980s in Miami and now the Cubans are rivals against the newcomer Colombians and the shit really just hit the fan....all revolving around the money and power that cocaine generates.
