One aspect that deserves commendation in the film is its bold condemnation of American intelligence agencies. Based on Noah Boyd's novel of the same name, the narrative centers around Steve Vail, a former CIA operative who now works as a The Bricklayer Flixtor. The story commences by introducing Victor Radek, the film's antagonist, who goes on a killing spree in Greece, specifically targeting journalists who have been openly critical of the CIA's operations in other countries.
