Miami-based production company rakontur has an outstanding track record of attention-getting documentaries, from Cocaine Cowboys to ESPN’s The U. In this special Miami Film Festival presentation, director Billy Corben and producer Alfred Spellman preview clips from their upcoming projects including A Sunny Place for Shady People, a doc series about the scams and schemes that flourish in Florida, and a new documentary miniseries that returns to the milieu of Cocaine Cowboys to profile a Miami-based Cuban crime family with a longstanding involvement in the drug trade. Corben and Spellman will reflect on the factors that have allowed them to thrive in Miami.
