Sins of My Father

Argentinian writer and director Nicolas Entel brings the story of notorious drug lord Pablo Escobar through his son in this powerful documentary. Entel managed to get Escobar's son to open his archives and tell the story of his father that destroyed the lives and hopes of many. It's a heartfelt film about a son who has to live with the sins of his father which included a life in exile with a different identity. The most powerful moment is when he reaches out to the sons of two politicians whose fathers were killed by Escobar. Entel keeps the right balance without going overboard which makes for a powerful documentary. YRCinema's coverage of films on DVD.
