The original Emmy and BAFTA award winning mini-series that inspired the Oscar-winning film TRAFFIC starring Michael Douglas, TRAFFIK is a devastating portrait of the global heroin trade extending from the poppy fields of Pakistan through the drug syndicates of Hamburg to the needle-infested haunts of London.Showing how the drug trade taints the lives of all involved, TRAFFIK is a spellbinding chronicle of the people growing, selling, using and outlawing heroin, and stars BILL PATERSON (The Singing Detective) as an English Minister trying to secure a financial-aid agreement with Pakistan to eradicate poppy production; his life is shattered however when the drug infiltrates his own family. "Like The Singing Detective, Alastair Reid’s award-winning 1989 British miniseries has taken on mythic status” wrote Amazon’s Donald Liebenson of this brutal portrayal of modern opium trafficking and the war on drugs.
