At a Buenos Aires cafe, a blind man notices a stranger's cologne. He has smelled that scent only once before -- some 20 years earlier when he encountered notorious Nazi Adolf Eichmann. The tip reaches Israeli intelligence and an elite team springs into action. False passports are created. Training intensified. Stakeouts track the suspect. At an Argentinean safe house, a plan is drafted. The man who sent millions of Jews to Hitler's death camps will be brought to justice. Robert Duval and Arliss Howard star in the story of the 20th century's most daring manhunt. Based on the memoir Eichmann in My Hands by Israeli operative Peter Malkin, and filmed on location on the street where the Nazi was caught and at the airport where he was smuggled out of Argentina. The Man Who Captured Eichmann is "a mind-blowing psychological drama. Duvall and Howard electrify." (The Atlanta Journal-Constitution)
