A contemporary thriller
set in the high-stakes, high-risk world of drug trafficking.
Told through a series of interrelated narratives, the stories
range from the highly personal to those filled with intrigue
and danger. A pair of undercover DEA agents (Don Cheadle and
Luis Guzman) work in the sordid and dangerous world of San Diego
dealers; a wealthy drug baron (Steven Bauer) living in upscale,
suburban America is arrested and learns how quickly his unknowing
and pampered wife (Catherine Zeta-Jones) takes over his business;
the U.S. president's new antidrug czar, an Ohio State Supreme
Court Justice (Michael Douglas), must deal with his increasingly
drug-addicted teenage daughter (Erika Christensen); and a Mexican
policeman (Benicio Del Toro) finds himself caught in a web of
corruption. Adapted from the 1989 U.K. miniseries Traffik.
