A ground-breaking documentary from Sundog Pictures and Spray Filmes about the failed War on Drugs. Narrated by Oscar winning actor Morgan Freeman, Breaking the Taboo, takes a critical look at how after 50 years of prohibition, illicit drugs are now the third most valuable industry in the world after food and oil.

Speaking during the documentary former US President Bill Clinton says, “Obviously if the expected results were that we would eliminate serious drug use in America and eliminate the narco-trafficking networks, it hasn’t worked.”

Breaking the Taboo was filmed in eight countries; conducted interviews with over 176 people; and has the support of four former Presidents & The Global Commission on Drug Policy.

The film calls for an honest and open debate about drug laws, encouraging viewers to break the taboo on a subject that has been ignored for too long.

The film enjoyed a ground breaking premiere on YouTube, which saw nearly a million people watching the film on social media. It is now available to watch on Netflix.

Breaking the Taboo is produced by Sam Branson’s indie Sundog Pictures and Brazilian co-production partner Spray Filmes and was directed by Cosmo Fielding Mellen and Fernando Grostein Andrade. View Less
