A devout American Muslim, Samir finds himself in the middle of a conflict; he is a man struggling to do the right thing while, at the same time, trying to figure out what the “right thing” means. As a man of faith, Samir must decide how to live life, as a man committed to his faith or a man committed to his government.

Touching upon the very sensitive and controversial topic of terrorism, first time Director, Jeffrey Nachmanoff was very intentional to have authentic Arabic natives as the actors for this movie. “We could have hired other nationalities to portray Arab actors, but instead, we concluded to hire Arab actors for a more genuine feel.“ shares Jeffrey. “The location shots were rather expensive, according to Cheadle, but very necessary.” The crew traveled to Toronto, Marseilles, Morocco and London to get the perfect look.

Jeffrey even hired ex-CIA agent Jason Harrison to come on board and dispel the many myths that plague spy thrillers. According to Jason, “It was important to me that people finally had the opportunity to see, literally, how the CIA works. Unlike many spy thrillers, an order is not placed to retrieve a pile of important documents and they quickly appear. I wanted people to see the truth.” His desire to create the best film possible required Jeffrey to spend countless hours with Cheadle, who also serves as producer.
