In 1994, Miles Hargrove's father was kidnapped outside their home in Cali, Colombia by the FARC. The Hargrove family found themselves in the midst of a Colombian epidemic — the ransom trade— where their only hope was to pay ransom to the guerrillas. To cope with the long and difficult negotiations, Miles kept a Video8 diary of the unbelievable events that unfolded. 25 years later, he revisited the footage to turn his diary into a documentary chronicling his family's incredible story.
