Not all superheroes find ways to be human, but it has always been an easy task for Captain America. Unlike most actors who play superheroes, Chris Evans has always found a way to play characters that are grounded in reality while also pretending to protect the world from intergalactic super-villains.

‘The Red Sea Diving Resort’ is a perfect example of Evans taking on a role that narrates the story of a brave man who is part of a huge humanitarian undertaking. The Netflix film with an incredible story is going to be one of the most important films of 2019.

Release date:

Netflix will release 'The Red Sea Diving Resort' on July 31.

Plot

Inspired by an incredible true-life rescue mission, ‘The Red Sea Diving Resort’ is the story of a group of international agents and local Ethiopians who used a deserted holiday retreat in Sudan as a front to smuggle thousands and rescue and evacuate Jewish-Ethiopians refugees to Israel in the early ‘80s.
