As Putin's war in Ukraine rages on, US President Biden persuades Jens Stoltenberg to remain for one final year as Secretary General of NATO. On a trip to Kyiv, Stoltenberg promises Ukraine’s president Zelensky that the alliance will stand by Ukraine for as long as it takes.
However, support from the allies falters, and Stoltenberg must navigate political tensions among member states - he cannot keep the promise alone, as all NATO decisions require consensus.
With the filmmaker's unique access to NATOs "war room", you are immersed in the power play between global leaders such as Biden, Zelensky, Erdogan, and Orban, as the alliance faces one of its greatest historical challenges. The film tells a story about the art of diplomacy at a time when security and democracy are at risk. Will Stoltenberg be able to keep his word to President Zelensky?
