Lord of War
After escaping the USSR for the land of opportunity, young hustler YURI (Nicolas Cage) seizes the opportunity to make a buck by selling a key to the UN armory and realizing his calling as an arms dealer.
Driven by the lure of easy money and the heady cocktail of glamour and danger, Yuri and his brother VITALY claw their way up through the world of international arms dealing, all the while staying one step ahead of the law, ruthless competitors and treacherous clients by wit and cunning.
With private jets and a beauty queen at his side, Yuri savors the high life in the fast lane, even after being forced to kill in cold blood and learning the brutal personal cost of his profession.
But when Vitaly encounters the innocent victims of their unholy trade and is killed making a moral stand, Yuri's world begins to cave in...
