Istanbul, Turkey; Two of Turkey's top Secret Police Officers Firat (Mahsun Kirmizigul) and Acar (Mustafa Sandal) undertake covert anti-terror operations to uncover the true identity of a dangerous Islamic leader known only as 'Dajjal'. Through violent raids and brutal interrogations they uncover 'Dajjal's' real name.
New York; Led by Agent Becker (Robert Patrick – Terminator 2; Judgement Day, Walk the Line) the FBI arrest a prominent Muslim scholar and family man in connection with an international terrorist warrant issued by Interpol, the man's name; Hadji Gumush (Haluk Bilginer). Could they have found Daijal?
Firat & Acar are swiftly dispatched to New York to assist in the extradition of Hadji, the handover however is far from simple. With the support of his wife (Gina Gershon – Face/Off) and close friend Marcus (Danny Glover – Lethal Weapon; 2012) Hadji manages to elude the authorities and go into hiding. But Firat did not travel all that way to just let him disappear quietly into the night…
As a lifetime of events catches up with them Hadji and Firat are forced to confront the very roots of what makes them the men they are, setting them on a violent course that will take them to the heart of vengeance and faith.
