The Wild Geese

Amidst violent political turmoil in central Africa, the nefarious London merchant banker named Sir Edward Matheson hires a loyal band of seasoned middle-aged mercenaries led by the fearless Colonel Allen Faulkner, to rescue the deposed African President, Julius Limbani. With Limbani imprisoned and presumed dead by his followers, the determined Colonel along with a small army of hand-picked paratroops parachute into the hostile Zembala to fight for the wounded leader's freedom, unaware that there has been a change of plans behind their backs. Can Faulkner's men make their escape from the sun-roasted wasteland with General Ndofa's vicious Simbas after them?
