1960, in a Buenos Aires suburb: Adolf Eichmann, the notorious Nazi architect of the "final solution", is recognized by a Holocaust survivor. DEtermined to return Eichmann to Israel to stand trial for his crimes, the Mossad devises and carries out a breathtaking plan: the agents kidnap Eichmann and smuggle him out of the country. A true-life thriller, focussing on the preparations and the execution of the kidnapping as well as the subsequent interrogations. A riveting study of the banality of evil and dogged pursuit of justice. Writer Chetwynd "doesn't go in for big scenes or outpourings; small talk is illuminating" (Variety). Starring Oscar-winner Robert Duvall ("The Godfather", "Apocalyse Now") as Eichmann and Arliss Howard ("Full Metal Jacket") as Mossad agent Peter Malkin, upon whose memoirs the film is bases.
