The real thing coca, democracy and rebellion in Bolivia

DVD 2004

This documentary film explores the U.S. directed War on Drugs and the impact it has had on the indigenous coca farmers of el Chapare. It is a film that peels away the layers of rhetoric used to justify the U.S. Government's War on Drugs and now the War on Terrorism revealing a war between two worlds, one global and modern, the other local and indigenous.
