This intriguing movie is based on factual events that occurred in a post war Bosnia in which any thing goes.

Plenty of intrigue, corruption, and diplomatic cover-ups linked to the UN and also some (U.S. military) contractors. Bolkovac is put to the ultimate test as she tries to help in the rebuilding of this devastated area and comes up with far bigger problems than she could have imagined. Also stars Vanessa Redgraves (playing Madeleine Rees) and Benedict Cumberbatch (as Nick Philips), The Whistleblower is a very thought provoking and intriguing movie.
