English Summary:

In 1978, Baton Rouge pilot Barry Seal, who flies commercial jets for TWA, is recruited by a CIA case officer calling himself Monty Schafer. He asks Seal, who has been smuggling Cuban cigars into the country via Canada, to fly clandestine reconnaissance missions for the CIA over Central America using a small plane with cameras installed. At first Seal's wife Lucy thinks he's still with TWA, but eventually she is excited by the wealth generated by his "new company".

Later in the 1980s, Schafer asks Seal to start acting as a courier between the CIA and General Noriega in Panama. During a mission, the Medellín Cartel picks Seal up and asks him to fly cocaine on his return flights to the United States. Seal accepts and starts flying the cartel's cocaine to Louisiana, delivering the drugs via airdrop in the countryside instead of landing at an airport. The CIA turns a blind eye to the drug smuggling, but the DEA tracks Seal down. To avoid the authorities, Schafer moves Seal and his family to the remote town of Mena, Arkansas, which slowly becomes the hub of all U.S. cocaine trafficking.

Later, Schafer asks Seal to run guns to the Nicaraguan Contras based in Honduras. Seal soon realizes that the Contras are not serious about the war and just want to get rich and he starts trading the guns to the cartel. The CIA sets up a Contra training base in Mena and Seal flies the Contras in, but many of them escape as soon as they arrive.

Seal makes so much money he buries it in suitcases in the backyard. Seal's freeloading brother-in-law JB moves in, needing a job. Eventually, he starts stealing money from the Seals and is arrested after Sheriff Downing catches him with a briefcase full of laundered cash. With JB out on bail, Seal gives him money and a plane ticket to Bora Bora and tells him to get lost for his own safety. JB demands weekly cash and insults Lucy. Barry chases after him but JB's car explodes in a fireball; the cartel of Jorge Ochoa isn't taking any chances.

 

German Summary:

Barry Seal: Only in America (Originaltitel American Made) ist eine US-amerikanische Abenteuertragödie von Doug Liman. Der Filmplot beruht auf wahren Begebenheiten aus dem Leben des Drogenschmugglers Barry Seal, der von der CIA rekrutiert wird, um an verdeckten Operationen in Südamerika mitzuarbeiten.

Einst war Barry Seal Pilot der amerikanischen TWA-Fluggesellschaft, doch in den 1980er Jahren wird aus dem zuvor ehrenwerten Mann ein Drogenschmuggler, der mit Drogenbaronen in Nicaragua zusammenarbeitet und hierbei seine Erfahrungen und Fähigkeiten als Pilot nutzt. Das Geschäft läuft besser und besser, doch bald findet sich Seal nach einer Razzia der Polizei in einem kolumbianischen Gefängnis wieder.

Vor einer Verhaftung durch die DEA und der Inhaftierung in einem US-Gefängnis wird Seal bewahrt, weil er von dem CIA-Agenten Monty Schafer angeheuert wird. Seal soll bei seinen Drogentransporten ganz nebenbei die rechten Contra-Kämpfer in Nicaragua mit US-Waffen versorgen, deren Guerilla-Krieg gegen die demokratisch gewählte Sandinista-Regierung von Präsident Ronald Reagan unterstützt wird.

Seal unternimmt seine Flüge von einer Flugbasis in Mena im Hinterland von Arkansas aus, wo sich auch ein militärisches Trainingsgelände für die Contras für die Diktatur der Somoza-Dynastie befindet. Weil er aber nicht nur US-Waffen für die Contra-Rebellen abliefert, sondern weiterhin auch Drogen schmuggelt, wird Barry als verdeckter CIA-Agent zu einem der reichsten Männer der USA. Er hortet es nicht nur bei mehreren Banken, sondern auch in Koffern, Hutschachteln, Taschen und vergräbt es im Garten seines Hauses im ländlichen Arkansas.
