The story

Ari Ben-Sion (Jonathan Rhys Meyers), an Israeli spy posing as a German businessman named Hans Hoffmann in 1989 Berlin, receives orders to travel to Damascus to help a Jewish family escape Ba'athist Syria. During his mission, he encounters Kim Johnson (Olivia Thirlby), an attractive American photojournalist, and begins a relationship with her. Soon, however, he realizes that the local security services are aware of his true identity as an Israeli spy and are monitoring him closely, leaving him uncertain as to why he hasn’t been eliminated.
