Synopsis:

During the mid 1980s Howard Marks (Rhys Ifans) had forty-three aliases, eighty-nine phone lines and owned twenty-five companies throughout the world. Whether bars, recording studios or offshore banks, all were money laundering vehicles serving the core activity: dope dealing. At the height of his career he was smuggling consignments of up to thirty tonnes of marijuana from Pakistan and Thailand to America and Canada and had contact with organisations as diverse as MI6, the CIA, the IRA and the Mafia.

The true story of Howard Marks, an Oxford grad who became a major marijuana importer in the 1960s in the U.K. and managed to escape jail time by posing as an agent for MI5.

The true story of a man who stumbled into a lucrative career as one of Europe's biggest drug dealers comes to the screen in this comedy-drama.
