Le chimiste Albert Hofmann découvre en 1943, dans son laboratoire de recherches bâlois, une substance jusque-là inconnue. Après l’avoir expérimentée sur lui-même, il comprend qu’il a affaire à un agent extrêmement puissant qui bouleverse la perception humaine. Les psychiatres commenceront à utiliser, dans les années 1950, cette nouvelle substance appelée LSD à des fins thérapeutiques. Lorsque cette «bombe atomique du cerveau» sort des cliniques dans les années 1960, c’est une véritable révolution: le LSD semble fait pour les hippies en rupture avec la société d’abondance. Dans les années 1970, le LSD est mis sur liste noire. Aujourd’hui, les substances psychédéliques retrouvent, pour la première fois, un usage légal.

In 1993, after Pablo Escobar is gunned down by the police, his then sixteen-year-old son Juan Pablo flees to Argentina together with his mother and sister. To avoid being identified and in fear of his life he changes his name to Sebastián Marroquín. "My life was worth $4 million ... That’s the price they put on my head", he said. After a decade of silence, he and his mother publicly speak about the life of their family member for the first time. In an attempt to end the cycle of violence and to ask for forgiveness Marroquín travels to Colombia to meet the sons of two of his father's two most prominent murder victims: presidential candidate Luis Carlos Galán and Minister of Justice Rodrigo Lara Bonilla as well as the son of the former Colombian president César Gaviria. In connection to telling the story of Pablo Escobar, the film also explores the recent violent history of Colombia as a "narco-state" and the country's illegal drug trade.
