In 1976, an Air France flight out of Israel is hijacked by Palestinian and German terrorists led by Wilfried (Daniel Br?hl) and Brigitte (Rosamund Pike). The plane is forced to land in Entebbe, Uganda, where the Jewish passengers are held hostage. Instead of giving in to the hijackers' demands to release Palestinian prisoners, the Israeli government sends in a commando team for a rescue mission. Eddie Marsan co-stars. Directed by Jos? Padilha. Based on true events.
