Cocaine Godmother (2017)

Cocaine Godmother (2017) takes an unflinching look at the tumultuous life of the infamous Griselda Blanco. A relentless pioneer in the Miami-based cocaine trade, Blanco's story begins when she enters the United States at just 17 years old, armed with nothing but a fake passport and a burning ambition. Married to her first husband Carlos, they settle in Queens with their three sons. However, ordinary life pales in comparison to the intoxicating allure of the drug world, its promises of power, and the seductive whisper of money. Bold and cunning, Blanco quickly becomes entangled with local drug runners, transforming herself into a mastermind of the illicit trade. She ingeniously employs an array of unassuming mules - beautiful women, the elderly, even children - and pioneers the use of false-bottom suitcases to smuggle cocaine from her native Colombia. As the money flows in like a rampant river, her sons forgo the mundane path of education, instead choosing to join the family's ominous empire. The film weaves a compelling narrative of Blanco's life, from her audacious beginnings to the chilling climax of her existence. Known to have orchestrated over 200 murders, this Colombian drug lord's tale is a potent cocktail of ambition, power, and ruthlessness. Cocaine Godmother (2017) paints a vivid portrait of one woman's insatiable hunger for supremacy in a world ruled by lawlessness, offering a stark glimpse into the darkness behind the dazzling allure of the drug trade.
