Red
Mercury is a thriller with an international
cast, set in London. The movie takes on one of
the most chilling issues facing western democracies
today - the emergence of 'home-grown' terrorism
- and the causes behind it. Red Mercury
was completed just three weeks before the bombs
that brought tragedy to London in July 2005. Red
Mercury is about three British-born
Muslim fanatics who hold a restaurant to siege
with a lethal bomb.
