Mozambique (1964) Synopsis

In Lisbon, American pilot Brad Webster has been shut out of work ever since he crashed a plane four months ago; his associated personal life is negatively affected by his dwindling financial resources. Despite the odd nature of the way the request got to him--via a letter on lawyer Villeneuve, killed in a car accident, which got into the possession of Police Commandant Commaro who further passed it along to its intended recipient--Brad accepts the one-way ticket to start a job as a pilot working for Colonel Fernando Valdez in one of his many businesses in Mozambique, a Portuguese territory in East Africa. Upon his arrival in Mozambique, Brad discovers about the recent demise of Valdez, the operations having been taken over by his associate, Da Silva, who has since joined forces with who was Valdez's competitor, David Henderson, in whatever the nature of the business in which Brad will be involved. Da Silva's leadership does not sit well with Valdez's widow Ilona, who is looking for the missing briefcase that contains the information that will restore the financial power that is rightfully hers as her husband's heir. Although the job isn't what he wants, Brad helps Christina Sindstrom, a young singer at one of Valdez's nightclubs who got a similar one-way ticket to Mozambique only to discover on arrival that the job included "being friendly" to business associates, which she was not prepared to do, and now she's trying to find a way out of Mozambique. Brad and Christina's missions to get out of Mozambique for good become more complicated when they are involved in a murder.—Huggo
