Movie Haiku:Cooke as narrator leads us thru the drug business from "entry level" hustlers thru international "king pins" with help from Simon (creator of THE WIRE for HBO). Point is to convince USA that money spent on the "War on Drugs" is not just wasted but destroys neighborhoods while corrupting police & politicians. Starts tongue-in-cheek but ends deadly serious.
