On July 2nd, 2008 a new page was written in the history of military
hostage rescues. On that day, a Colombian military intelligence force,
using a strategy of deceit, rescued 15 hostages from the jungles of
Colombia. The hostages where being held by dozens of armed guerrillas
from the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, known as FARC.
Throughout the rescue operation, not a single shot was fired, no one
was killed and no one was harmed. Through never before seen footage of
the planning and execution of the operation, a video taken by the duped
guerillas, firsthand accounts of the rescued hostages and for the first
time, the testimonies of the intelligence commandoes who executed the
mission, this documentary presents the dramatic, real story of one of
the most successful rescue operations in history.
