Out of Reach is a 2004 direct-to-video action/adventure drama film starring Steven Seagal. It was directed by Po-Chih Leong and written by Trevor Miller and James Townsend. Seagal plays William Lancing, a former covert agent turned survivalist, tracking a human trafficking ring and trying to rescue his pen pal, a thirteen year old orphan from Poland who he has taught to use secret codes.

Plot

Vietnam veteran William Lansing (Steven Seagal), a former CSA agent who now works on a wildlife refuge in Northern Alaska, has been exchanging letters in a pen-pal relationship with Irena Morawska (Ida Nowakowska), a 13-year-old orphaned girl in Warsaw, Poland that he's helping out financially.

When the letters suddenly stop coming, Lansing heads to Poland to figure out the reason. He discovers that the orphanage that Irena was staying in, which is financed by honest—and unsuspecting—good-intentioned Samaritans, is a cover for a human trafficking network.

Run by a man named Faisal (Matt Schulze), the operation is worth billions—girls are sold and traded to the highest bidders from all over the world.

Through his letters to Irena, Lansing has taught Irena how to use secret codes, which she uses to keep him updated on where Faisal is taking her to. Lansing stays on Faisal's trail, teaming up with local cop Kasia Lato (Agnieszka Wagner) to rescue Irena and the other girls, and bring down Faisal's human trafficking network.

Filming dates

The movie was shot during August 4, 2003 — September 21, 2003 in Poland.
