The Imperialists Are Still Alive! (2010)

Synopsis of The Imperialists Are Still Alive!

Emerging writer/director Zeina Durra explores the effects of the War on Terror on the lives of average Americans through the eyes of a Manhattan visual artist who begins to suspect that her best friend has been abducted by the CIA. Asya (Élodie Bouchez) lives a life of glamour and luxury. Yet through all of the A-list parties and celebrity hobnobbing, she knows that the situation in the Middle East is only getting messier. The same night Asya learns that her lifelong friend Faisal has vanished without a trace, Asya gets swept off her feet by handsome Mexican medical student Javier (José María de Tavira), who dismisses her growing concerns as simple paranoia. Now the more Asya dwells on her growing concerns, the more complicated her once-simple world begins to appear. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
