Nicolas Entel's searing documentary tells the story of Pablo Escobar -- Colombian drug kingpin, murderer and family man -- through the eyes of his son, Sebastian, as well as the sons of two of Escobar's most prominent victims.

Four narratives weave their way through the tragic slums of Bogota to the lofty hills of Hollywood. A 14-year-old prostitute girl and an ill-fated, eccentric American writer forge a strange companionship. A Colombian university student invites a terrible danger into her world in the name of financial solace, while a day-care teacher in Los Angeles does everything she can to fight the weight of a tragic secret.

Investigative journalist exposes the dark side of gold mining. Gold has fueled dreams and generated immense wealth in Colombia for centuries. And many are involved in the pursuit: large mining companies, small-scale miners, and armed groups. Van Zeller meets face-to-face with illegal river miners, a former intelligence officer, and a masked guerrilla leader in order to uncover the real story and gain insider information.

For over half a century, civil war paralyzed Colombia and kept much of its wild lands frozen in time. In December 2016, that changed. The war that resulted in the deaths of 220,000 and displaced 6 million people came to an end. And the land wars began. With the FARC officially gone, the forests of Colombia are open for business. With the war ongoing in 2011, National Geographic Explorer correspondent Mariana van Zeller traveled to Colombia to investigate how the conflict was fueled by gold, with each side wanting their part of the riches. In 2018 Mariana returns, and finds the country even more chaotic. Hundreds of thousands of acres of pristine land is up for the taking, and both corporations and wildcatters want a piece. Today a new conflict arises: FARC has abandoned their forest mines and new armed factions have sprung up in the void, each vying for control of illegal gold that brings in $7 billion per year alone. The scramble for control is unleashing a new round of bloodshed. Illegal gold mining is the largest cause of deforestation in Colombia, and scores of activists and union leaders have been murdered. Through expert interviews and personal encounters Mariana finds that before the peace and after, Colombia's agile criminal underground will evolve and find a way to succeed.

The drug war costs billions of dollars, claims thousands of lives and employs technologies that are limited only by the imagination and the money of the cartels. DEA special agents follow drug mules and track boats.

Quantum Physics is truly the last great frontier, beyond the unexplored depths of the oceans, and even beyond the further reaches of undiscovered space. How beneficial the understanding and therefore the application of Quantum Physics can be in the real world, which is reigned by chaos. By mastering all the elements that are contained in the theory and how to apply it to your daily life, this groundbreaking tool will be decisive to give you the opportunity to change your life. The Quantum Project mixes, in such a controversial way, human reality with this knowledge to share and help the people. It is a theme in which topics such as quantum entanglement through human relationships are being addressed and that links emotions, such as love and fear, as the mechanism with which we interact with the universe. The film travels to the smallest realms and across the furthest reaches of space., showing that we can change the way we interact with the fundamental fabric of the universe, if we change our perspectives and shape our emotions we will unlock entirely new realities. The Quantum Project not only showcase the cutting edge quantum science that is being mined across the entire globe, but will also reveal the next evolution in quantum theory and a complete reassessment of observation and even existence itself.

Investigate reporter risks all to uncover the dark world of gold mining in Colombia.

Quantum G-d is a 96 pages script and a presentation deck, for a science documentary, written, from the scientific optics, by scientists from the California Institute of Technology, Caltech, listed as the most important institute of technology in the world, and one of the main universities along with Harvard, MIT and Oxford. Throughout the script, the physicists formulate questions and provide the answers through different professional perspectives according to each area of study. This is accompanied with a series of mind blowing, never before seen animations that will be used in schools to teach quantum physics for an entire generation. The script, which includes the pointed questions and the novel animations, will challenge the top minds in theoretical physics to re-evaluate our ideas of how the universe works through the lens of quantum entanglement. One of the writers serves as the manager for Caltech's Institute for Quantum Information and Matter, and he was a scientific consultant in Marvel's blockbuster movies, including Ant Man, Spider Man Homecoming, Ant Man and the Wasp, Infinity War, Captain Marvel, Doctor Strange, Avengers: Endgame and Fantastic Voyage (dir: Guillermo del Toro, prod: James Cameron). The narrative was constructed with the help of another scientist, a cell and molecular pathologist and research associate at the Doheny Eye Institute in Los Angeles, who co-wrote the viral shorts films, "Anyone Can Quantum" and "Quantum is Calling" which featured Stephen Hawking, Paul Rudd, Keanu Reeves, Zoe Saldana, Simon Pegg and John Cho respectively.
