Der Wind und der Löwe

You negotiate with tribal warlords on the edge of a Saharan storm. A widowed American mother’s children ride alongside the riders who took her. Gunboats idle off Tangier as tribal drums pace the desert night. The film finds the fleeting moment when honor and empire collide without declaring a winner.
