*Background*

In 2013, within the framework of the legalization of marijuana in Uruguay, we performed a hidden viral humor camera called: "Official Test - Hidden camera in marijuana pharmacy" that reaches international media such as La Nación, O Globo, The Guardian ( UK) or Le Monde (Fr) and taking advantage of this momentum, we began to shoot our first fiction feature film called: "Unofficial Mission" where a Uruguayan pharmacist and his mother travel to the United States with the secret mission of obtaining 50 tons of marijuana to supply Uruguay. The mastermind of this crazy mission is President José Mujica, which brought to the project a great local and international media interest (Buzzfeed, NTN24, La Vanguardia (es), Veja (br) and international agencies such as EFE and AFP).
