Synopsis

When Allen Long's attempts to make a documentary on drug smuggling stalled for cash, smuggling seemed the obvious way to raise the necessary funds. Millions of dollars later the film still hadn't been made, but Long's own life as a pioneering dope smuggler had played out like a Hollywood movie: the seat-of-the-pants rides in decrepit DC-3s into the Columbian badlands, the near misses with law enforcement agencies, the fortunes earned and blown, the models, the partying, the Studio 54 years. And getting busted. Written by Robert Sabbag the undisputed master of the genre, Smokescreen is a hilarious piece of hair-raising reportage that will keep your pulse racing to the very last page.
