“MalaYerba” formally known as “Cannabica” tells the story of Félix, Mariana and Ignacio, three young, intelligent and ambitious entrepreneurs, who bet on a market that has just been legalized in Colombia: medicinal cannabis.
Their company, KannaLab, quickly becomes the dream of every entrepreneur and the envy of their generation. Its founders are the perfect team: Mariana has the land to cultivate; Ignacio has the network; and Félix, the perfect and unique seed with which they’ll rule the world. However, their lives will be disrupted when Lola, an ambitious journalist, sets her eye over their company and discovers there’s a dark past behind the famous seed.
Los Angeles-based Spanish-language streamer Pantaya is streaming the new thriller series exclusively on the platform in the U.S. and Puerto Rico. International distribution by Sony is expected at a later date.
The 10 x 45-minute series was produced by Lat Am prodco Dynamo and has been co-created by Natalia Echeverri, executive producer at Dynamo, and director Andrés Beltrán (Bolívar), with María Elisa Camargo (El Barón) and Carolina Gaitán (Narcos) among its cast. Nomads’ Esteban Orozco is attached to write.
