A tight drama of an issue that people should care about
31 July 2019 | by Gordon-11 – See all my reviews

This film tells the story of a group of agents who go into Sudan to save a group of Jewish refugees.

The good number of stars attracted me to this film, and it turns out to be as good as one can expect. It is a tight drama that makes you want to find out what happens next. Furthermore, it is about an issue that people should care about. I think it is worth a good watch.
