It is a dark and dangerous world in Colombia, where children are often targeted by criminal gangs and used as drug mules or forced to join their ranks. In this episode of At the Gates of Hell, we follow the story of one such child, a young girl named Juana, who finds herself caught up in the vicious cycle of violence and poverty that plagues her country.

Juana is just one of many "broken children" in Colombia, victims of a society that has failed to protect them from the worst abuses of its criminal elements. Growing up in a small village in the mountains, she dreams of escaping to the city and making a better life for herself, but when her parents are killed in a drug-related incident, her world is turned upside down.

Forced to fend for herself, Juana turns to the only people she thinks she can trust: a group of gang members who have taken over her village and offer her protection in exchange for her loyalty. At first, she is grateful for their help and the sense of belonging they provide, but as time goes on, she begins to see the true cost of their friendship.

As Juana gets deeper and deeper into the gang's world, she finds herself being drawn into a web of violence and corruption that threatens to swallow her whole. She witnesses acts of brutality and coercion that are beyond her worst nightmares, and begins to realize that there is no escaping the cycle of poverty and crime that has trapped her and her community.

Broken Children is a harrowing look at the realities of life for many children in Colombia, and the difficult choices they must make in order to survive. It is a story of resilience and perseverance in the face of overwhelming odds, and a testament to the human spirit's ability to endure even the darkest moments.
