About this submission
In the summer of 1970, two political exiles, from opposite sides of the world, become embroiled in a plot to simultaneously hijack three airplanes from three European capitals before enemy operatives assassinate them.
We Must Grow Tough, But Without Ever Losing Our Tenderness follows the tumultuous young lives of LEILA KHALED and PATRICIO ARGUELLO RYAN, and the relationship that erupts during the one electrifying week they spent together before their dangerous – and ultimately deadly – mission. Part action, part romance, part biography and part historical exploration, We Must Grow Tough is inspired by the true story that will have viewers questioning what they once thought was right, and lingering on a love story that lasted for just a moment.
