Well Go USA has announced that they will be releasing the acclaimed action-drama Escape From Mogadishu on Blu-Ray and DVD on January 18, 2022. The film is currently available on Digital. Internationally-acclaimed, award-winning director Ryoo Seung-wan (Veteran, The Berlin File) brings together a stellar cast, including Kim Yoon-seok (The Chaser, The Yellow Sea), Huh Joon-ho (Kingdom, Illang: The Wolf Brigade), Zo In-sung (The Classic, The Great Battle), Koo Kyo-hwan (Train to Busan Presents: Peninsula, Netflix’s Kingdom: Ashin of the North), Joung Man-sik (The Swordsman, Rampant) and Kim So-jin (The Spy Gone North, The King) for the riveting story of rival diplomats from North and South Korea who become trapped as a civil war rages in Somalia. The film is South Korea’s official submission for Best International Feature at the 94th Academy Awards.
Synopsis: Dramatically constructed based on actual events: when civil war explodes in 1991 between rebel factions and Somali government forces under dictator Mohamed Siad Barre, rival North and South Korean diplomats are trapped in the capital city, surrounded on all sides by what would emerge as some of the deadliest fighting of the conflict. With no aid from either Korean government—and no means of communicating with the outside world—the diplomats’ only shot at survival may require uniting with bitter adversaries to escape.
Bonus material include production documentaries and a making-of featurette.
