Michael (James) applies for his dream job with the United Nations and, thanks to the reputation of his diplomat father, is quickly hired and whisked off to Baghdad to join the Oil-for-Food program being run by Pasha (Kingsley). When he uncovers endemic corruption within the program, though, he becomes a target, even more so when he learns that his predecessor may have been killed after attempting to bring the very same corrupt practices to light. Along with his translator (Bilgin), Michael struggles to make the corruption public without losing his life.
