The upcoming action-thriller film Mogadishu directed by Ryu Sung Wan confirmed its summer release starring Kim Yoon Seok and Jo In Sung.
Recently, the films’ movie poster is made public and caught the attention of many viewers because of the precarious setting of the movie.
Mogadishu‘s plot happens during the Somali Civil War of 1991 and centers on the survival and vigorous escape of the characters who are stuck in the capital of Mogadishu.
In terms of history, the Somali Civil War lasted for 30 years and staining the lives of Somalians with war, hunger, and terrorism.
It is also reported from the United Nations Development Programme that 73 percent of Somalians live in poverty and only have 52 years of life expectancy.
In the movie’s poster, we can see how crucial and tense the situation is in the capital of Mogadishu.
Having nowhere to go and war all over the place affected the lives of many Somalians.
The film’s dilemma heightened because Somalia happened to be a no-travel country and will give more thrill on how the characters would escape in a begrimed place.
Moreover, the tension in the film elevated because it happens in a situation where no one can help them.
This specific situation leaves the audience on how the characters can escape in a tight condition.
