Inspired by actual events - Hard up Nebraska Police Office Kathryn Bolkovac (Academy Award-winner Rachel Weisz) accepts a well-paying UN peacekeeping job working on behalf of the UN. She arrives in post-war Bosnia expecting a harmonized community, but instead finds chaos and disorder against a back drop of simmering cultural tensions. When a brutally injured young woman lands in the UN's care, Kathryn risks her own life as she uncovers an organised and vicious underworld of sex trafficking. Despite attempts to prevent her investigation and threats on her life she fights to uncover the truth and traces the path of criminality to a shocking source.
