Synopsis: This thriller, shot in the exotic locations of Hungary, Israel and Canada, has it all: intrigue, suspense, parallel existences, and fact-based drama. Naval officer Annibal Ramirez (Aidan Quinn) is on vacation in Israel when he's arrested out of the blue and brought in for questioning by Israeli agents. What Annibal doesn't know is that he looks nearly identical to Carlos Sanchez, an infamous international terrorist sought after the world over. In comes the CIA, represented by Jack Shaw, who was a first-account witness in one of Sanchez's most brutal acts of terror in the 1970s and bent on bringing him down. Shaw manages to get Ramirez on his team to pose as Sanchez and convince his allies that he's unworthy as a colleague. Ramirez is suddenly faced with the opportunity to save his country, but he's not sure if he's ready to leave his old life behind and enter a situation rife with danger.
