Kathryn Bolkovac is a Nebraska cop who is thrust into the gravelly snake pit of UN regulated Bosnia. She works as part of a private corporate army, training Bosnian police to restore order to the war-torn country. As she begins to get the lay of the land in her new environment, she starts to see signs of a terrible underground industry whose patrons are not only from within the corporation but from within the United Nations as well. After finding a woman who has escaped from a human trafficker selling sex slaves to hidden brothels in the area, Kathryn begins to see how expansive an industry it has become in the years following the war. As she gathers more and more evidence to bring to light she discovers the last thing she ever expected, that there is no way for the corporate army and UN officers to be held accountable for their actions. Based on the harrowing true story of a single womans quest for justice in the face of a truth no one wanted to expose and organizations facilitating the very crimes they were created to stop. But is one woman enough to go up against the United Nations and its corporate conspirators.

The minute I saw a women cop as the main actor I remembered "Murder by Numbers" although the story in that movie was set in US only.

that would be some of those contractors that creep along on these UN missions and profit from exclusive deals (like rebuilding, training)


terrible underground industry whose patrons are not only from within the corporation but from within the United Nations as well.

ok, thats just stupid, as they can use this 'service' only during (post) conflict times, meaning someone local would have to take over later on...another corporation? :rolleyes:

industry? hardly, more like small time pimps using local (or neighboring) prostitutes...and btw a prostitute chain is different than a sex slave operation


But is one woman enough to go up against the United Nations and its corporate conspirators.

sure, if they let her...if she was really such a threat, she would have just disappeared as mia or kia

from another link:


When a fragile peace came to Bosnia in 1995, thousands of UN and Nato peacekeepers followed to help restore democracy and the rule of law.

ROFLMAO
aren't they caring organizations :rolleyes: basically they (UN) are only needed to hold a perimeter and just observe, maybe sometimes escort, but not to engage in any 'restoring' or 'peacekeeping' or law enforcement - its similar with nato, though they can use force more freely and have a backup (carriers, aircrafts, satellites), again nothing to do with peacekeeping

want an example how UN 'keeps peace' by directly observing massacres (and doing nothing to stop them) - take the example from Bosnia, in a town called Srebrenica, where the UN troops showed the shameful extent of their impotence & cowardice :eek13:


so much about the 'true story' getting 'harmonized' into a fairy-tale by hollywood spin-doctors
