机长弗兰克(丹尼斯·奎德 Dennis Quaid 饰)与飞机打交道多年,这次他将负责一架“凤凰号”货机,运送一批石油工人和物资到北京去。然而令他意想不到的是,飞机在途中遇到了风暴,弗兰克不得不迫降在荒无人烟的内蒙古戈壁滩上。幸好死伤人员并不多,然而他们的储备水却只够维持一个月的使用,但在一个月内能等到救援的可能性有如买彩票。饥饿和慌张中,幸存者间开始了各种意见分歧与争吵。最后一名自称是飞机设计师的乘客提议,用飞机残骸再造一架飞机自救。然而造飞机并非想象中那么简单,人心在不断尝试中渐渐消耗,仅存的生命之水也越来越少,重伤的“凤凰”还能否在广漠戈壁中涅槃重生?
Saif Ali Khan, who will be seen playing a cop, shared his excitement, “Kartavya, which is really great, produced by Shah Rukh's company Red Chillies Entertainment, is going to come out soon. It's a lovely piece by director Pulkit, and really happy that too is coming out on Netflix.”
The film also features an ensemble cast including Rasika Duggal, Sanjay Mishra, Saurabh Dwivedi, Zakir Hussain, and Manish Chaudhari.
Team Kartavya shared - “Kartavya marks the second collaboration between Red Chillies Entertainment, Netflix, and director Pulkit, following Bhakshak. As a team, we are committed to telling stories that push creative boundaries and resonate deeply, and Kartavya is a powerful reflection of that vision. Set in the heartland, the film explores the complex intersections of law, family, truth, and duty, with Saif delivering remarkable depth and intensity in a morally layered character. We are delighted to partner with Netflix on this journey and look forward to audiences across the world experiencing this gripping and compelling narrative.”
