Escape from Mogadishu (2021)
More actions

Ryoo Seung-wan directed this South Korean historical action drama (Korean: 모가디슈), dramatizing the true story of South and North Korean diplomats trapped together in Mogadishu, Somalia, as the country's 1990 civil war erupts around them. Rival ambassadors Han Shin-seong (Kim Yoon-seok) and Rim Yong-su (Huh Joon-ho), along with their respective intelligence officers Kang Dae-jin (Zo In-sung) and Tae Jun-ki (Koo Kyo-hwan), set aside Cold War hostility to survive together, ultimately bulletproofing a convoy of cars for a desperate dash across the besieged city. (Wikipedia) The film was South Korea's submission for the Academy Award for Best International Feature Film at the 94th Academy Awards.
