The story is told of Geoff (John Magaro), a young, ambitious producer who wants to prove himself to his boss, the legendary Roone Arledge (Peter Sarsgaard). With the help of the German interpreter Marianne (Leonie Benesch), Geoff unexpectedly takes over the direction of the live broadcast. While time is running out, contradictory rumors are circulating and the lives of the hostages are at stake, Geoff has to make difficult decisions and come to terms with his own moral compass. How should one report on such a situation when the perpetrators are using the media attention for their own purposes?
