Documentary filmmaker Dara Barr is at the top of her game and
looking for bigger challenges. That's why she's come to Djibouti,
on the Horn of Africa, with her right-hand man, six-foot-six,
seventy-two-year-old African American seafarer Xavier LeBo, to film
modern-day pirates hijacking merchant ships. But almost no one here
is who he seems to be. Dijibouti's most successful,
Mercedes-driving pirate seems to be a good guy, while his pal, a
cultured Saudi diplomat, has dubious connections. Texas billionaire
Billy Wynn plays mysterious roles as the mood strikes him,
especially when dealing with his nifty fashion model girlfriend,
Helene. And then there's Jama Raisuli, a black al Qaeda terrorist
from Miami, who's vowed to blow up something big.
