Sergio

A historical fiction biopic focused on Sergio De Mello, the Brazilian UN diplomat who led the mission in East Timor and negotiated their independence from Indonesia, and then was charged with leading the UN mission to Iraq in 2003 as the US invaded. The story of these two events is told simultaneously in real-time/flashback as a way to tell the story of Sergio's life and evolution as a person. Very well done.
4 stars (out of 5)
