Description: Three men: an Iraqi, a former coalition soldier, a journalist, drive together from Baghdad towards Fallujah as the US Marines encircle the city to take it apart. The men are supposedly on a single mission to seek a recent kidnap victim but in truth all three have very different aims in the besieged town, each a dark secret from the other. Greed, ambition and guilt are what separates the individual driving forces but a single miscalculation could bring an end to them all.
