10 KilosOf Cocaine
Inspired by the best-selling true story of Sharon Yitzhaky. A young woman framed at the border, Bolivia's most notorious women's prison. A love affair with the head of the cartel. And a family built from strangers.
The Story
SynopsisSharon went to Bolivia with a young guy she barely knew. She was framed for smuggling ten kilos of cocaine across the border, and thrown into Bolivia's most notorious women's prison. News stations picked up the story, and Sharon became the most "famous" woman convicted in the country.
Behind the walls, she began a tempestuous love affair with the head of the Bolivian drug cartel, held in the adjacent men's jail. With that connection, she became the biggest dealer inside the prison — and bonded with a beautiful transgender inmate. She got addicted to cocaine, then fought her way back to sobriety to protect them.
A lucky break came when the Pope declared a Holy Year of Mercy for the millennium. Sharon used a loophole in the law to escape with her family to New York. This all happened before her 26th birthday — and every word of it is true.
"It all happened before her 26th birthday — and every word of it is true."— From the Best-Selling Memoir by Sharon Yitzhaky
