Although the atrocities in Yugoslavia covered news in the 1990s, what was hidden were the actions of military contractors in the region. “The Whistleblower” tells the story of Kathryn Bolkovac, who was a Nebraska police officer who joined a private company as a peace-keeper in Bosnia, only to discover that the company was complicit in human trafficking.
The really ugly scenes are when we see what is done to the trafficked girls. It almost seems as though the movie should have focused more on them. But what is equally important to understand is not only the atrocities committed with impunity by private contractors, but the risk that whistleblowers face even today (as shown by the WikiLeaks case).
If you want to see the reality behind modern-day mercenary armies, then this film is a must.

Watched the movie after reading the review by Tom, and I’m very impressed, but it depicts a stark reality that leaves nothing to imagination. Painful and honest bestowed by emotional performance by Rachel Wiesz..

Really good movie, hard to believe in modern times these things still happen! Keeps you interested and thinking the whole way through, Rachel Wiesz at her best!
