Welcome to the new front line

A UK-based military officer in command of a top secret drone operation to capture terrorists in Kenya discovers the targets are planning a suicide bombing and the mission escalates from “capture” to “kill.” As American pilot Steve Watts is about to engage, a nine-year old girl enters the kill zone, triggering an international dispute reaching the highest levels of US and British government over the moral, political, and personal implications of modern warfare.

  • a.k.a. Eye in the Sky - In letzter Sekunde

Colonel Katherine Powell ist Kommandantin einer Drohnen-Operation in Nairobi. Von ihrer Einsatzzentrale aus versucht sie Terroristen aufzuspüren und auszuschalten – ohne selbst vor Ort sein zu müssen. Ihr Kollege Steve Watts ist ebenfalls nicht vor Ort, lenkt die Waffe allerdings per Fernsteuerung an Powells gewünschtes Ziel. Bei ihrer Suche nach kriminellen Machenschaften stoßen Powell und Watts auf zwei mutmaßliche Terroristen, die in einem Haus in Kenia einen Anschlag planen, der zahlreiche Menschen in Gefahr bringen wird. Zunächst ist das Kommando klar: ausschalten. Als allerdings ein vermeintlich völlig unschuldiges Mädchen die Szenerie betritt, sind sich die Menschen hinter den schweren Waffen nicht mehr sicher, wie sie weiter handeln sollen. Innerhalb kürzester Zeit wird die Frage nach Leben und Tod zu einem politischen Großereignis.

Il diritto di uccidere

l colonnello Powell guida a distanza una squadra di militari antiterrorismo nella cattura, in territorio kenyano, di una cittadina inglese che ha rinnegato il proprio Paese per il fondamentalismo islamico di Al Shaabab. Quando l'esercito, servendosi di droni, scopre la verità sui piani dei terroristi l'urgenza di fermarli con ogni mezzo diviene una priorità. Ma nei piani alti nessuno vuole prendersi la responsabilità di un attacco letale e dei suoi danni collaterali.
