Friends Ben and Chon run a lucrative business cultivating marijuana on the Californian coast. Both of them bring something to the table: with peace-loving Ben managing a functioning network and war veteran Chon dealing with any trouble that arises. Ravishingly beautiful Ophelia – known most of the time as O – completes the ménage à trios. But when the trio turns down a proposal from a Mexican drug cartel, O is taken prisoner. Ben and Chon are prepared to do anything to free their girlfriend, and introduce the shady drug enforcement officer Dennis to the deadly game. Oliver Stone brings a cocktail of violence, vigour and humour to this adaptation of Don Winslow’s crime novel.
