13 Days, 13 Nights

- OFFICIAL SELECTION: Festival de Cannes (Out of Competition) -

Based on the incredible true story and autobiography of Commander Mohamed Bida, 13 Days, 13 Nights is an intense and profound thriller.

Kabul, August 15, 2021. As US troops prepare to withdraw from Afghanistan, the Taliban storm the capital and seize power, plunging the city into chaos.

Thousands of Afghans flock to the last safe haven: the French Embassy, where Commander Mohamed Bida (Roschdy Zem, The Innocent) and his elite crew ensure security.

Inside the compound, Bida and his team scramble to hold the line as the world outside descends into chaos. With the help of Eva (Lyna Khoudri, The French Dispatch) - a young French-Afghan humanitarian worker - they must negotiate with the Taliban to organize a convoy in a last-ditch attempt to evacuate. Thus begins a race against time to reach the airport and flee the hell of Kabul before it’s too late...

With 13 Days, 13 Nights, director Martin Bourboulon (The Three Musketeers, Eiffel) has crafted a breathless, edge-of-your-seat experience that simply must be seen on the big screen.
