What is One Mile about?
When his teenage daughter vanishes into the hands of a violent, off-grid group, a battle-hardened ex-special forces soldier has no choice but to leave behind any semblance of civilian life. Working without backup, without resources, and without mercy, he methodically closes the distance between himself and the men who took her. Each step deeper into their territory strips away another layer of safety, forcing him to rely on the combat instincts he once hoped he would never need again. The film builds its dread quietly before unleashing a series of tightly choreographed confrontations that place a father's love directly against overwhelming odds.
Cast & crew
Ryan Phillippe leads as the determined father, drawing on a career spanning decades of action and dramatic roles. Amélie Hoeferle plays the daughter at the center of the crisis, while Sara Canning and C. Thomas Howell round out a cast that keeps the human stakes grounded even as the set pieces escalate. Director Adam Davidson brings a controlled, economical visual style to the material.

The film is available on K-Time with a full Persian dub as well as Persian subtitles, meaning viewers can follow every word comfortably whether they prefer watching in Farsi or reading along.
