Dramatisation of the massacre which took place in Colombia in 1948, as a result of conflict between conservative and liberal forces, and concentrating on the character of a former cheesemonger-turned professional killer.

Based on a true story of a British television crew that travelled to Colombia to film a fake documentary about drug trafficking. In one scene, shot in the director’s hotel room, an actor played the part of a character whom the filmmakers passed off as Cali Cartel’s Number Three. They claimed they had risked their lives to get the interview. One sequence also shows a man pretending to swallow capsules of heroine and transporting them to London in his stomach. This phoney TV documentary is an international smash hit. When a London daily discovers that the whole thing is a hoax, a team of British journalists are sent out to Colombia to cover the story. Their report unleashes a scandal that shakes the very foundations of television in the UK.

Jaime Flórez, a shrewd provincial, has a stroke of luck when he is treated as a king in a town that confuses him with an important international diplomat.

After spending some time in Paris, Lala returns to Colombia determined to help her mother and also determined to face the world in the face of her new change from Lalo to Lala. Something that will not be easy, but thanks to his determination he will achieve it.
