Based on the True story of Journalist Gary Webb. The film takes place in
the mid 1990s, when Webb uncovered the CIA's past role in importing
huge amounts of cocaine into the U.S. that was aggressively sold in
ghettos across the country to raise money for the Nicaraguan Contras
rebel army. Despite enormous pressure not to, Webb chose to pursue the
story and went public with his evidence, publishing the series "Dark
Alliance". As a result he experienced a vicious smear campaign fueled by
the CIA. At that point Webb found himself defending his integrity, his
family, and his life.
