Narco Cultura is a 2013 documentary film about the Mexican drug war in Ciudad Juárez, directed by Shaul Schwarz. The two main focal points of the movie are Edgar Quintero of the narcocorrido band Buknas de Culiacán and crime-scene investigator Richi Soto.[2][3][4]
These songs were played throughout the documentary with the intention of guiding the audience through scene to scene. The film used several songs from that were written by different artists:
El Mini 6 is a song inspired by the life of Raúl Meza Torres, an assassin for the Sinaloa Cartel. His alias was "El Mini 6" and the song by Los Buknas de Culiacan recalls Raúl's life as an inspiration before his death in 2010.
