Antipersonnel mines and gunfire make cocaine eradication in Colombia a task unlike any other. The air thickens with the scent of acetone when a lab is close, but most of the time they are occupied by humble families, who cultivated the coca crops because of desperation rather than malice.

Small circles, in a vast sea of cocaine.
