Full Plot Details

The story about Swedish ambassador in Chile - Harald Edelstam - and his heroic actions to protect the innocent people from the execution during and after the military coup on September 11th 1973. We travel with Edelstam during the terrible moments just after the coup and follows his never-ending fight for human rights, law and order. What drove him? And what price did he end up paying for his total commitment? Haunted by his own demons the we experiences on close hand how a womanizer desperately searches to find love again, a task only doable, if he can fight his own past and redeem himself. After saving hundreds - maybe even thousands - he is challenged once more, this time to save his newfound love from the death penalty issued by the regime. Another impossible task and a desperate chase against time. Based on a true story about a man, that did, what all of us only dreams of.

User Review - 10/10 by Sofia Bprobably the only thing that makes me proud to be swedish.....
User Review - 10/10 by Private Uhe was truly a brave man in a tough time in Chile...
User Review - 8/10 by Rita HLiked it a lot. God film based on a true story
User Review - 8/10 by Jorge AUna interesante película que muestra la historia del diplomático sueco Harald Edelstam, encargado a la época del golpe militar de 1973, de la embajada sueca en Chile. Resulta ser que el personaje central es una especie de Schindler sueco que vivió en Chile en la época de mayor represión política. Resulta interesante para conocer que en nuestro país existieron hombres con la fortaleza y determinación de enfrentar un regimen político brutal e irracional, salvando un centenar de vidas de compatriotas que finalmente partieron al exilio. Absolutamente recomendada.
User Review - 8/10 by Tomas JThe end with some footage from the real events and with real people was a nice ending - and really anchoring everything in real world.
User Review - 6/10 by Jessica AThe story is good, but I think the movie should have benefited from being 20-30 minutes longer so that the events did not happen so quickly that they were hard to follow, and also the descriptions of the characters could have been more thorough.
User Review - 6/10 by Luna PLa escena de "amor" con Kate del Castillo fue completamene innecesaria en esta historia tan interesante de la vida del Diplomático sueco y de la historia chilena... y me parece que hay suficientes actrices chilenas que podían haber interpretado mejor ese papel sin necesidad de usar un acento tan forzado.
User Review - 6/10 by Glenn CRuotsin oma Oskar Schindler.. Nii, onhan tämä ihan hyvä historia oopus ja ruotsalaisuuden itsentunnon kohottaja ja niin myös pohjoismaidenkin, kun lopussa itse Harald Edelstam kertoo saaneensa ainoastaan suomalaiselta kolleegaltaan apua. Todellakin tositapahtumiin perustuva tarina, mutta valitettavasti ehkä hiukan tylsästi kerrottu..
User Review - 4/10 by Christian MWell, his motives do not convey as noble as they make them sound. It's an OK movie.
User Review - 2/10 by Jacob BThe story is great, but the execution of the movie is horrible. Don't see it, if it comes out in paperback, read it instead.
