description This paper explores three Mexican fiction feature films internationally released in 2011: Miss Bala, Days of grace and El Infierno. The movies propose three different criminality’s representations related to drug trafficking. Therefore, we try to draw various archetypes of the drug dealer’s body in films.

Do they contribute to maintain the attraction towards this figure, fictional as well as real?
