Synopsis
After reading the diary of an eldery Jewish man who commited suicide, freelance journalist Peter Miller begins to investigate the alleged sighting of a former SS-Captain who commanded a concentration camp during World War II. Miller eventually finds himself involved with the powerful orginization of former SS members, called ODESSA, as well as with the Israli secret service. Miller probes deeper and eventually discovers a link between the SS-Captain, ODESSA, and his own family.
Critics' reviews
- "The surprises increasingly fail to surprise."
- "Voight's performance gives credibility to his character's obsession, but even that cannot overcome the discrepancy between the deeper themes and the routine nature of this piece of box-office action adventure."
