About the Film:
“My dad had a career in the cocaine trade as an independent smuggler. He pulled off a dozen smuggles that were so ingenious that the person carrying the load always had an out. He was uniquely principled for this line of work, always putting people first. His adventures and life lessons serve as the creative spark behind this new movie. I want to take this deep inspiration and grow as a storyteller, making a movie with intense authenticity that is fun, entertaining, full of action, drama, romance and wit – a motion picture that would make my father proud.” — Zak Forsman
