A well-intentioned but not a well-developed attempt to correct the Western world's conception of Somalia as a dangerous and lawless place.

Product Description:
An ambitious young journalist (Evan Peters) embeds himself with a dangerous band of pirates in Somalia to get an unfiltered investigative perspective, but his inexperience threatens to derail his plans. Bryan Buckley wrote and directed this biopic based on the real life investigation of Canadian journalist Jay Bahadur.
