Costa-Gavras puts the viewer in the middle of a two-sided conspiracy of wrestle power in an unnamed South American nation.  At its heart: a rebel-led kidnapping scheme to force the police state to release political prisoners. Corruption, torture, murder, and terror - all sponsored and plotted out by American “advisors” - are exposed in this chilling procedural.
