The CIA and the Colombian drug lord, a legendary The Mule who made “deals” with two huge organizations.
Did such a guy (idiot) really exist!?--It's a bottomless and dynamic performance that will leave you astonished. Those who have watched "American Made" (2017/Director: Doug Liman), a unique entertainment based on a true story starring Tom Cruise, will be impressed by the real-life, unconventional main character, Barry. People might be interested in Seal (born 1939 - died 1986) himself.
As depicted in the movie, he was born in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and was originally a pilot working for the private airline TWA (Transworld Airlines). In 1978, Barry was scouted by a man from an organization calling himself IAC (Independent Aviation Consultants), as he had excellent piloting techniques. However, the real employer is the CIA, which shuts up even the crying children! Barry, who has secretly become a dog of the regime, flies to war-torn Central and South America and is put in charge of a major spy operation in which he secretly takes reconnaissance photos from a highly difficult low-altitude flight.
However, Barry is secretly approached about a dangerous part-time job by Pablo Escobar, a drug lord who heads Colombia's infamous mega-trafficking organization, the Medellin Cartel, who has become acquainted with Barry during his top-secret mission. Cocaine was airlifted to America.

Barry, easily dazzled by money, starts a side job as a ``The Mule'' in addition to his reconnaissance mission. However, due to the Colombian government's interference, the CIA, which had helped him in a pinch, found himself in a weak spot. His new top secret mission is to smuggle weapons. He and his family moved to the rural town of Mina in Arkansas, and under orders from the U.S. government (that is, the Republican administration of Ronald Reagan at the time), he was busy transporting large quantities of weapons to the Contras, an anti-government guerrilla army in Nicaragra.
