Beyond Justice, also known as Desert Law, Law of the Desert and Maktub, Law of the Desert, is a 1991 Italian action-thriller film directed by Duccio Tessari that was shot in Morocco. The film was edited from the three-part, 300-minute 1989 Italian Canale 5 television miniseries Il principe del deserto.
When the estranged Moroccan husband (Kabir Bedi) of wealthy corporate head Christine Sanders (Carol Alt) takes their son Robert to Morocco, she hires two operatives (Rutger Hauer and Peter Sands) who specialize in rescuing hostages from terrorists to bring her son back. Robert is brought to his grandfather (Omar Sharif) who wishes the boy to succeed him as the ruler of his tribe.
