Фильм поставлен по одноимённому роману Эрика Эмблера 1940 года. Газета «Нью-Йорк таймс» описала фильм как «экстравагантное приключение американского эксперта по артиллерии, попавшего в сеть международной интриги». История фильма «следует за своим испуганным главным героем с момента первой встречи со смертью в низкопробном стамбульском ночном клубе, через Чёрное море на занюханном греческом судёнышке для перевозки скота к последней отчаянной схватке на улицах Батуми.
