Quote The Debt
In 1965, I was part of a mission to kidnap Dieter Vogel and bring him to Israel to stand trial. We have always claimed that Vogel was killed, trying to escape. But this was a lie. A lie I have lived with for thirty years.

Storyline
The espionage thriller begins in 1997, as shocking news reaches retired Mossad secret agents Rachel Singer (Dame Helen Mirren) and Stephan Gold (Tom Wilkinson) about their former colleague David Peretz (Ciarán Hinds). All three have been venerated for decades by their country because of the mission that they undertook back in 1965, when the trio (portrayed, respectively, by Jessica Chastain, Marton Csokas, and Sam Worthington) tracked down Nazi war criminal Dieter Vogel (Jesper Christensen) in East Berlin.
At great risk, and at considerable personal cost, the team's mission was accomplished - or was it? The suspense builds in and across two different time periods, with startling action and surprising revelations.
Did you know?
Dame Helen Mirren, in her role as Rachel, was required to speak some dialogue in Russian, and although her father was a Russian diplomat, she did not speak the language in childhood. However, the lines she speaks in this movie, perhaps fully or partially memorized phonetically, are nearly flawlessly articulated and quite credible as native Russian speech.
