About the film: 1h36min – Drama, History – Not Rated – English

Once a high-ranking Nazi officer, Adolf Eichmann (Robert Duvall) now lives in Buenos Aires, Argentina, under an assumed name, having moved on from past atrocities and raising a family. But when a survivor recognizes Eichmann, an Israeli intelligence team is put together and dispatched to South America. Eventually, Eichmann is caught by secret agent Peter Malkin (Arliss Howard), who interrogates the man in an attempt to grasp how he was capable of committing such crimes against humanity.
