| Based on the 1980s British television miniseries TRAFFIK, director
Steven Soderbergh presents TRAFFIC, a patchwork of stories that evokes the
high-stakes, high-risk world of the drug trade, as seen through a series
of inter-related stories, some are highly personal, some are filled with
intrigue and danger. A Mexican policeman finds himself caught in a web of
corruption; A pair of undercover DEA agents work in the sordid and
dangerous world of San Diego dealers; a wealthy drug baron living in
upscale, suburban America is arrested and learns how quickly his unknowing
and pampered wife takes over his business; and the U.S. President's new
anti-drug czar, an Ohio State Supreme Court Justice, must deal with his
increasingly drug-addicted teenage daughter. |
