TelevisaUnivision announced that the documentary series "Operation Black Swan" will premiere on ViX on October 27. The series was produced by N+ Docs as an original documentary production.
A documentary series explores the true story behind the escape of notorious Mexican cartel leader Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán, as well as the subsequent intense pursuit that ultimately led to his recapture, a dramatic event widely regarded as one of the most striking episodes in Mexico's recent history.
A high-stakes manhunt ensued following the daring escape of Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán from the Altiplano prison on July 11, 2015. This escape, which took place at one of Mexico's most secure correctional facilities, left authorities scrambling to locate the fugitive and raised concerns about the effectiveness of the institutions responsible for his capture.
The production features a two-part series, each episode lasting 60 minutes, which chronicles the six-month period following the escape. The resulting material provides a detailed account of the key clues, operations, and pivotal decisions that ultimately altered the trajectory of the investigation.
A forthcoming documentary, "Operation Black Swan," is set to provide an in-depth look at a significant event, featuring exclusive testimonies, classified intelligence, and over 40 minutes of previously unseen footage. The program will shed new light on the circumstances surrounding the escape, the challenges faced by law enforcement, and the subsequent operation that led to the recapture of the fugitive.
