Plot:
The espionage thriller begins in 1997, as shocking news reaches retired
Mossad secret agents Rachel (Helen Mirren) and Stefan (Tom Wilkinson)
about their former colleague David (Ciarán Hinds). All three have been
venerated for decades by their country because of the mission that they
undertook back in 1965, when the trio (portrayed, respectively, by
Jessica Chastain, Marton Csokas, and Sam Worthington) tracked down Nazi
war criminal Vogel (Jesper Christensen) in East Berlin. At great risk,
and at considerable personal cost, the team's mission was accomplished -
or was it? The suspense builds in and across two different time
periods, with startling action and surprising revelations.

In 1965, Mossad agents Rachel, Stephan and David are assigned to kidnap
Nazi Dieter Vogel, a.k.a. The Surgeon of Birkenau, in East Berlin. They
succeed in the abduction but fail in bringing him to the west side.
While staying with him in an apartment building, Vogel escapes but the
trio of young agents lies to their government and tells that Rachel
killed Vogel while he was running away. They have been honored in their
country by their action for more than thirty years. In 1997, Rachel's
daughter Sarah Gold releases a book in Tel Aviv about the mission of her
mother and the two other agents. Rachel Singer, Sarah's father Stephan
Gold, who is paralytic in a wheelchair, and David Peretz, who is
missing, are retired and Rachel is uncomfortable with the lie that they
have been living with. Out of the blue, David appears in Tel Aviv and
commits suicide. Stephan investigates and finds that Dieter Vogel is
apparently alive in a hospital in Kiev, Ukraine, and will be interviewed
by a journalist. Now Rachel has to travel to Kiev to conclude what they
should have done thirty years ago.
