The plot is based on the book of the same name (read our Marching Powder book review for more info), which follows McFadden’s bizarre incarceration in Bolivia’s “most notorious prison”, San Pedro, where the finest cocaine in Bolivia is produced, cells are a part of the property ladder and tours are available to passing back packers as advertised in the Lonely Planet.
According to the Marching Powder Facebook page neither Thomas McFadden or Rusty Young have creative control over the film. However, they are consultants for the production, so hopefully it will have some of the humour, brutal realism and insight that the book had.
The screenplay for the film is currently being written. More information on the Marching Powder film will be added as it becomes available.
