SYNOPSIS:
Juan Guttierez has spent over 2 decades of his life smuggling and trafficking cocaine across the entire span of Latin America. Upon returning home from a hectic deal in Mexico he learns that his wife Rebecca is pregnant with their second child. Throughout the entirety of their marriage Rebecca has tolerated Juan's dangerous lifestyle and regardless of the threats and hardships he's endured he always has found a way to come back to her. However, after having spent much of his life running Juan knows that for the sake of his family he must run away from the most dangerous profession on earth while being sure that his enemies never find him. With few allies and limited resources Juan must rely on the only other person he trusts, his cousin Sam. Despite his disapproval of Juan's lifestyle and profession Sam is the one family member who has never lost hope in Juan and knows how to see good in everyone. Relieved that Juan has finally chosen to abandon his profession as a drug trafficker, Sam agrees to help Juan do whatever it takes to leave drug dealing behind, unaware of the risks and challenges they must face. With the help of one of Juan's few yet controversial allies, Juan and Sam embark on a journey involving one final deal. As Juan and Sam venture throughout Mexico they come to better understand one another. Sam begins to look past the criminal face of Juan and realizes how he is truly a loving husband and father who has always done whatever he must to support his family. Juan comes to find that although Sam may be well rounded and polished on the outside, he has a few skeletons in his own closet that could jeopardize his own love life. With Rebecca's due date arriving and the stakes getting higher Juan and Sam find themselves in a race against time to elude Juan's arch enemy and safely return to the women they love most.
Based on the true lie by Alex Kresock, My Cousin Juan is a thrilling intense story of crime, redemption, and proving that you must never judge a book by its cover, and that some people will risk everything just for the people they love most.
