Prisoner of Rio plot

"Britain's most wanted man is back."

Twenty years after a legendary robbery in England, criminal Ronald Biggs is still at large in Rio de Janeiro. The British secret service, however, is not satisfied with this and sends Jack McFarland to Brazil to kidnap Biggs. McFarland poses as a reporter and thinks everything is going according to plan, but he underestimates Biggs. Eventually it comes to a dramatic chase during the carnival in Rio.
