Заложник (2026)

Overview

Moscow, 2014. Successful financial analyst Maksim Pozharskiy helps already wealthy people get rich. Without asking unnecessary questions, he simply takes what's his. But everything in his world changes when the only person close to him, his sister Nina, disappears in the Middle East and is captured. This time, financial solutions are unavailable, and Maks is forced to travel to Syria, engulfed in internal conflict, torn apart by major powers for oil and other resources. Right at the border, he is kidnapped by rebels, and to escape, he makes a dangerous deal with a militant named Said. Using all his skills, Maks begins to earn millions for him, but gradually becomes increasingly entangled in the local realities, unable to understand who is shedding blood and for what purpose.
