Colombia’s Narcotours
For the Guardian, I traveled to Medellin, Colombia, to produce and shoot this feature with Iman Amrani reporting on camera.
Here’s a synopsis of the story:
The Colombian city of Medellín has long been associated with drug lord Pablo Escobar, and with the popularity of Netflix’s Narcos, a new influx of tourists are visiting the city to see where the infamous kingpin operated. The Guardian’s Iman Amrani speaks to the people whose lives were affected by Escobar, and with the city’s mayor who is trying to turn Medellín’s narrative away from its dark past.
