　　埃及裔美国人安瓦•艾尔•伊布拉西米（奥玛尔•梅特瓦利 饰）大约二十年前，从埃及移民到了美国，与漂亮的美国姑娘伊莎贝拉•菲尔兹（莉丝•维瑟斯彭 饰）成了家，夫妻恩爱生活美满，育有一子，伊莎贝拉肚子里的第二胎也日渐成型。　　某日，安瓦•艾尔•伊布拉西米从南非出差回来，在华盛顿机场被神秘的黑衣人带走，原因是中央情报局认为身为化学品工程师的安瓦•艾尔•伊布拉西米是恐怖分子，想从他口中撬出有用的情报。倒霉的安瓦被“引渡”至埃及的开罗，交由驻扎在当地的中情局探员道格拉斯•弗里曼（杰克•吉伦哈尔 饰）和老奸巨猾的当地探员审讯。　　另一方面，身怀六甲的伊莎贝拉，坚信丈夫是无辜的，四下奔走，努力寻找丈夫的下落。期间，她虽然幸运地获得旧情人（彼得•萨斯加德 饰）的帮助，但终究不足以国家强势机构对抗，一筹莫展。　　与此同时，刚刚入行不久的特工道格拉斯•弗里曼，在目睹了CIA同事们对安瓦进行的非人道审讯时，也面临着良心的拷问。　　安瓦是不是恐怖分子？伊莎贝拉能否和丈夫团圆？中情局新手道格拉斯•弗里曼，究竟在这场暗战中发挥了怎样的作用？对这一切疑问的解答，必将引向对“引渡”政策的重新审视。

　　The main character is Dr. Max Holst, a successful neurosurgeon. One day an intense little man named Steinmetz shows up, who has the real ability to create objects out of thin air, using only his mind. As no one believes him at first, he is held at a ward for mental patients, but manifests the key to his door and escapes. As he has a special interest in Dr. Holst, Steinmetz subsequently invites Holst to his large mansion, which is full of expensive paintings and sculptures, and proves to him that he can in fact materialise objects. Steinmetz’s abilities are evolving by leaps and bounds, and is progressing from being able to create objects only to being able to create living things. His ultimate ambition is to be able to create a human being. He tells Dr. Holst that if he will only perform a certain brain operation on him, Steinmetz will become able to attain his goal. He’s got all the necessary equipment set up in his basement. Dr. Holst, however, is too spooked by the whole thing to agree to this mad scheme, and refuses. Steinmetz then sets about manipulating Holst’s life, to pressure him into performing the operation. By then Steinmetz has become able to create a temporary human being, and in the hope that he can perhaps make his own creation perform the operation, he manifests a doppelganger of Dr. Holst. This double proceeds to take over Dr. Holst’s life, creating chaos for him professionally and personally. And then Dr. Holst starts fighting back. The ending has the dual virtue of being both unexpected and satisfying.
