Once his ideological shift surfaces, he faces imprisonment and brutal interrogation before orchestrating an escape alongside a fellow American woman. Together they defect to the insurgent forces opposing the government. Directed by Jun Gallardo and featuring Reb Brown and Shannon Tweed, this 1988 film explores the moral reckoning of those caught between competing powers in regional conflict.
