Tres Caínes
Created by Gustavo Bolívar
On RCN, RTI Televisión
A dark, violent chronicle of a family's descent into narcoterrorism and internal betrayal, rooted in grief and the Colombian armed conflict.
The story follows the Castaño Gil family, a prosperous cattle ranching family marked by the kidnapping and murder of patriarch José Castaño by the guerrilla. This event triggers the decision of brothers Fidel, Vicente, and Carlos to form a self-defense army to fight the guerrillas, intensifying the armed conflict in Colombia. However, what seemed like a unified struggle is threatened by betrayal.
