The Covenant (2023)
In the desolate Afghan mountains, U.S. soldier John Kinley (Jake Gyllenhaal) owes his life to his interpreter Ahmed (Dar Salim) after a brutal ambush leaves their unit decimated. Bound by a sacred promise, Kinley returns to hellish terrain to rescue Ahmed from Taliban clutches—grit, gunfire, and loyalty fueling every step.
