This is a spy thriller which shows the capture and trial of Adolph Eichmann, the person in charge of the transportation arrangements for the Jews during the Holocaust. Although there was a Jewish Mossad team, this mostly portrays Peter Malkin (Oscar Isaac) as they work to get Eichmann (Ben Kingsley) to sign a document where he agrees to travel to Israel for trial. Malkin's girlfriend, Hanna (Melanie Laurent) joins them as a nurse to keep Eichmann drugged when needed. The plan from El Al has this as a condition to flying him to Israel. In other words, there plan was going smoothly until they are caught in a snag waiting to get the paper signed so they can go to the airport. In the meantime they are holed in a safe house while the Nazi sympathizers, with governmental assistance get closer and closer.
Personally I enjoyed the views of Argentina presented including the Obelisco in Buenos Aires.
