Synopsis of Jihadists in Paradise
Atlantic Monthly contributor Mark Bowden adapts an article he originally penned for that publication to the big screen with this docudrama detailing the emergence of a Philippines-based Islamic terror faction known as Abu Sayyaf, and its influential leader Aldam Tilao. After stealthily navigating their boat into a remote Philippines diving resort and kidnapping 20 hostages, Tilao and Abu Sayyaf behead one of their American captives before leading a frightened pair of missionaries on a treacherous trip through the jungles that would last a year and a half. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
