inspired by true events, centers on Mara Danning, a devastated mother whose young daughter, Amina, is abducted by her ex-husband, Karim, and taken out of the United States to Beirut. Although Mara attempts every legal avenue, she is frustrated to learn that law enforcement can offer little help due to the case falling into a legal gray area of international law—a biological parent taking their own child abroad. With time ticking away and her daughter increasingly out of reach, Mara determines that she must take extreme action into her own hands.
After years of fruitless diplomatic efforts and lobbying in Washington, a desperate Mara encounters an agent offering high-stakes child recovery services, a network that operates well outside the bounds of the law. This agent, Robeson, is a mysterious figure who offers hope at a steep price and immense risk. To secure his assistance, Mara must agree to collaborate on a dangerous mission involving the recovery of other missing children, a moral "barter" that tests the limits of Mara's ethics.
Mara's journey transforms into a high-risk rescue mission that takes her deep into the Middle East, where she must confront a web of corruption, violence, and a conspiracy far larger than she had anticipated. Battling her way through an unfamiliar and hostile environment, the film is a blend of tense action-thriller and intense emotional drama about a mother's relentless love. Mara must utilize all her wit and courage to navigate the dangerous underworld and ultimately reclaim her daughter from her ex-husband's grasp and the perils that lurk in a foreign land.
