Film Synopsis

A border police officer is offered the promotion he has long coveted in return for performing one special mission - to escort a delinquent to Kabul.  What could be simpler?  Luck is, however, not on our intrepid hero's side and when the plane in which he escorting his captive develops technical problems he is forced to break his journey at Malta.  The cop checks into a hotel, where he handcuffs his prisoner to a radiator so that he can get a good night's sleep.  Fatal mistake.  Of course the prisoner manages to escape and, to ensure his dreams of promotion do not go up in smoke, the cop must go after him.  The manhunt is underway!
