Yuri Orlov (Nicolas Cage) is an
opportunistic businessman who stumbled into a gold mine after the end of the
Cold War and the collapse of the Soviet Union. Huge caches of Soviet weapons
became available at bargain prices,and it began finding its way into the hands
of weapons dealers eager to sell it to the highest bidder. Orlov was one such
dealer who found plenty of buyers for guns and military gear in unstable Third
World nations, who paid cash and didn't appreciate too many questions. Orlov's
exploits in the arms business quickly made him a very rich man, but they've also
led to some unwanted attention from Jack Valentine (Ethan Hawke), an Interpol
agent who is convinced Orlov isn't playing by the rules.
