Only 1 in 8 recruits will pass the Foreign Legion selection policy

Considéré comme le narcotrafiquant le plus puissant au monde, Joaquin Guzman a acheminé aux Etats-Unis au moins 1200 tonnes de cocaïne sur un quart de siècle.

"Les preuves accablantes présentées lors du procès ont montré que Joaquin Guzman était le chef impitoyable et sanguinaire du cartel de Sinaloa", qu'il a co-dirigé entre 1989 et 2014, avait écrit le bureau du procureur fédéral de Brooklyn dans son réquisitoire avant le prononcé de la peine.

Durant le procès, l'accusation a montré que le Mexicain avait ordonné l'assassinat ou mis lui-même à mort au moins 26 personnes - parfois après les avoir torturées - qui étaient informateurs, trafiquants issus d'organisations rivales, policiers, collaborateurs voire même des membres de sa propre famille.

Three generations of Amish make a rare decision to tell their stories after months of reflection and debate with their pastors. How can they live between an ancestral ideology and a civilization of consumption pushed to the extreme? This documentary raises questions about the notion of individual freedom, belonging to a minority, economic and social norms, as well as the place of women.
