SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
"The Hunting Paty" is inspired by the true story
of a disgraced war journalist (Richard Gere) who enlisted
the help of his former cameraman (Terence Howard) and an eager,
wet-behind-the-ears journalism major (Jeese Eisenberg) to
track down an infamous war criminal still on the loose somewhere
in the backwoods of Eastern Europe.
What begins as an impulsive reporting assignment quickly
turns dangerous when hostile locals, shady underworld figures
and several cases of mistaken identity put them at odds with
their objective. As they bluff, con and blunder their way
to a scoop, they slowly learn the truth surrounding the circumstances
of his disappearance may be elusive as the war criminal himself.
Written and directed by Richard Shepard (THE MATADOR) the
movie is based on the Esquire article "What I Did On
My Summer Vacation" by Scott Anderson.
