Story
Yuri Orlov (Nicolas Cage) is an arms dealer who travels the globe selling weapons to warlords and dictators in various conflict zones. He is pursued by an Interpol agent, Jack Hulane (Elias Koteas), who aims to put an end to Yuri's illegal activities. Along the way, Yuri faces competition from other dealers, including his mentor, Simeon Weisz (Ian Holm). He also struggles with his conscience as he witnesses firsthand the devastation caused by the weapons he supplies. The story culminates in Liberia during a civil war, where Yuri's actions have dire consequences.
Summary
Lord of War is a 2005 thriller-drama directed by Andrew Niccol and based on true events, albeit fictionalized for dramatic purposes. The film follows Yuri Orlov, an arms dealer who profits from the chaos and violence of various war-torn regions around the world. The story explores themes of morality, consequences, and the global arms trade. It also touches on Yuri's relationship with his younger brother Vitaly (Jared Leto), who becomes involved in Yuri's business despite Yuri's efforts to keep him out.
