By Robin Brooks.
Mild-mannered Englishman Michael Forwell came from a loving background and attended one of Britain's top schools - yet he became one of the most successful drug smugglers of the 1980's.
A charming rogue, Forwell took enormous risks to feed his insatiable desire for adventure. But of course, the high-life came at a cost.
Directed by Selina Ream.
