What is the plot of 'Iron Reign' aka 'Mano de hierro'?
With nearly 6,000 containers arriving daily, Barcelona's seaport serves as a crucial hub for global trade.
However, alongside legitimate goods, it also harbors over 30,000 kilograms of cocaine each year, solidifying the port city's position as a key entry point for drug trafficking operations in Europe.
Joaquin Manchado, the owner of the main terminal at the port, exerts influence over this illegal trade by relying on an extensive criminal network that he has carefully built and maintained.
However, when an unexpected incident results in the disappearance of a major cocaine shipment, it triggers a merciless conflict marked by violence and vendetta.
The official synopsis reads, "Joaquín Manchado rules his drug empire from Barcelona's seaport with an iron fist — until a new shipment sends business and family spiraling."
