A Hijacking

Danish writer and director Tobias Lindholm went solo for his second feature which another riveting thriller. When a Danish cargo ship is hijacked by Somali pirates, it leads to an intense ordeal for the hostages as well as the negotiators trying to end the conflict. Lindholm grabbed a story from the headlines and delivered an intense thriller with sacrificing authenticity which further enhanced with actual locations and people. Pilou Asbæk reunited with Lindholm to star with another terrific performance along with a terrific cast that includes professional and non-professional actors. 1001 Films' coverage of films on DVD.
