Plot
Undercover CIA agent Sonni Griffith (Wesley Snipes) travels alone to Romania to expose an arms dealer and stop the sale of a nuclear weapon. When the arms dealer is tipped off to Griffith's identity, he lands himself in prison. Griffith is quickly released by the CIA, only to be given a new mission: to escort a beautiful Russian woman named Nadia (Silvia Colloca) back to the United States.
Griffith soon learns that strong-willed Nadia is being hunted by the very arms dealer that he intended to destroy, but this evil dealer will stop at nothing to get the information out of Nadia that he needs: the location of the $30 million she has hidden that will buy him a nuclear bomb. As the leak within the CIA continues to expose the location and identity of Griffith and Nadia, they must fight the arms dealers to the death to save themselves and the world!
