Black Cocaine

About This Movie

Black Cocaine is a gripping documentary that pulls you into the murky depths of Chile's political landscape through the life of Eugenio Berríos. The audio tapes are haunting, revealing not just his involvement with toxic substances, but also the intertwining of science and state violence. The pacing is deliberate, allowing the audience to absorb the chilling realities of dictatorship and how easily morality was discarded. What sets this film apart is its rawness—there’s a real sense of danger and intrigue, almost like you’re peeking behind a curtain that shouldn’t be opened. It’s not your typical documentary; it feels more like an excavation of buried truths that still ripple through society today.

With its focus on a controversial historical figure, Black Cocaine is gaining traction among collectors interested in politically charged documentaries. Currently, it’s available in a limited release format, which adds to its allure and scarcity. Expect that the audio tapes featured may become a topic of discussion for cinephiles and historians alike, making this one stand out in any serious collection.
