About ‘Narcos: Mexico’ season 1

The series explores the origins of the modern drug war returning to its roots, beginning when the Mexican world of trafficking was a disorganized and lost confederation of independent growers and traffickers. Attests to the emergence of the Guadalajara Cartel in the 1980s when Felix Gallardo (Diego Luna) takes command, unifying the traffickers to build an empire.

When DEA agent Kiki Camarena (Michael Pena) moves his wife and his young son from California to Guadalajara to take on a new position, he quickly realizes that his task will be more challenging than he could ever have imagined. While Kiki gathers intelligence from Felix and becomes more entangled in his mission, a tragic chain of events unfolds affecting the drug trade and the war against him in the years to come.
