Wild Horse Nine
Sometimes you've got to do a terrible thing for the greater good.
Directed by Martin McDonagh
Produced by Searchlight Pictures, Blueprint Pictures
A 1970s CIA comedy-thriller set on Easter Island that balances espionage intrigue with character-driven humor and moral ambiguity.
Shortly before the 1973 Chilean coup, CIA agents Chris and Lee are dispatched from Santiago to Easter Island by their bureau chief, MJ. Amongst the Island's iconic statues, and as the longtime partners wrestle with their dark pasts and present conspiracies, Chris's newfound bond with a pair of rebellious students threatens to send everyone’s trip to this remote paradise sideways.
