Lions Gate Original Film
She has negotiated three international treaties. The fourth one — the one that could end a decade of conflict — is being held hostage by a faction she cannot get to the table. Ambassador Patricia Wells, 50, is the US State Department's most experienced international negotiator — a woman who has been in rooms where the wrong word ends peace processes, and has never once said the wrong word. The film follows the 72 hours of her most critical negotiation: a ceasefire agreement that has been six years in development and is on the verge of collapse when a key faction withdraws. Patricia must get them back to the table using only the resources of conversation, preparation, and the specific weight of her own credibility. Act One — The Withdrawal Amara's faction leaves the talks. Patricia's assessment of why. The 72 hours beginning. Act Two — The Conversations Patricia working through the network of relationships that can get Amara back to the table. Act Three — The Table The negotiation resumed. The agreement reached. The specific word Patricia chose in hour 71 that made the difference.
