Trade Routes, an ambitious 2007 independent film, arrived on DVD on Oct. 26, 2010. A contemporary political thriller in the tradition of such recent films as Body of Lies and Syriana, Trade Routes was released by Vanguard and carries a suggested retail price of $19.95.

Set against an Eastern European nation’s election in a country that, a few years ago, was the most notorious communist dictatorship, the movie charts the paths of five characters: An aging CIA officer (William Hope) relegated to an outpost due to his scandalous connections to rendition and torture; a young attractive economic advisor (Alice Patten) who seeks out the toughest assignment to proof her worth; an ambitious Bulgarian Prime Minister’s chief of staff (Georgi Zlatarev), who’s facing a tough re-election; an American political consultant (Ross McCall) “hired to fix” the prime minister’s election; and a retired member of the Bulgarian Communist State Police (Kosta Tsonev).

With its five intertwining stories detaling the unscrupulous rules that govern foreign espionage after the Cold War, Trade Routes takes a brazen look at current international politics and American foreign policy.

The movie did not have a theatrical release in the U.S., so the DVD was its premiere.
