Synopsis

One afternoon, on a typical day at work, Adib is confronted with devastating news: His eldest daughter, Muna, has gone missing in Damascus. Now Adib, who has not been back in over 30 years, must return to Syria and deal with his secret past in order to find her.

Our take

A nail-biting thriller embedded around an unfurling mystery, Inescapable takes a heartbreakingly relevant geopolitical situation to examine the challenges of escaping our past. Working with Dawson’s Creek star Joshua Jackson, director Ruba Nadda revs up the political intrigue via tense performances.
