The Hunting Party is a 2007 war drama about discredited war correspondent Simon Hunt (Richard Gere) who takes along journalist Benjamin (Jesse Eisenberg) and cameraman Duck (Terrence Howard) on an unauthorized mission to track down the No. 1 war criminal at large in Bosnia, Dr. Bogdanović, a.k.a. "The Fox".
The movie is loosely based on real-life events in Bosnia in 2000 when 5 journalists set out on a similar mission to track down convicted war criminal Radovan Karadžić, the former President of the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
