"438 Days" takes you on a gripping journey into the heart of a dangerous mission that goes awry, leading to a harrowing tale of survival and resilience. What starts as a daring attempt by Swedish journalists to uncover the truth behind the hunt for oil in a conflict-ridden region quickly escalates into a fight for their lives. Shot and captured by the Ethiopian army, Martin Schibbye and Johan Persson find themselves thrust into a Kafkaesque nightmare, facing a draconian sentence for terrorism.

As the journalists navigate the treacherous waters of propaganda, politics, and oppression, their story transforms from one of oil exploration to a battle for freedom of speech and human rights. Locked away in the unforgiving confines of Kality prison, they are joined by fellow inmates who refuse to be silenced in the face of dictatorship. "438 Days" is a testament to the power of the human spirit in the face of adversity, showcasing the indomitable will of those who dare to speak truth to power. Will they emerge from this ordeal unbroken, or will the shadows of injustice consume them? Dive into this riveting tale of courage, camaraderie, and the enduring quest for justice.
