Trivia:
Shooting of the film lasted 16 weeks, while the average for a Colombian film is 8, with a long gap in the middle. When 70% of the movie was shot, the budget was used up and they had to recess for nine months. When all the cast and crew reunited again, they continued filming normally and the film was finished. more
Goofs:
Crew or equipment visible: In one of the scenes where 'El Susi' Arango is shown flying, you can see in the right bottom corner the shadow of the crane that's lifting him up. more
Quotes:

Lucho: Hi, my name is Lucho, and since the day I died I've grown so much that my mom wouldn't recognize me.

Another attempt to exploit the cliché of what Colombia is not, 11 November 2006
1/10
Author: gramirez from Bogota

Whenever a film maker goes short of ideas about Colombia, he resorts to the drug theme. This is a permanent cliché in the movie industry and it is easy to forgive if it is the sloppy work of an outsider. But when a Colombian director needs to go to these extremes of bad taste to broadcast (once again) the false notion that his country is a narcotics paradise, you can only feel sorry for him. What a narrow mind and what a scarce imagination.

I only hope that the next time someone uses the name of our country in the title of a film or any artistic work, it be with the purpose of honoring it and not as a commercial gimmick. And yes, that it be of any artistic value.
