Directed by: Fernando Meirelles
Staring: Ralph Fiennes, Rachel Weisz, Danny Huston, Anthony LaPaglia
Based on the best-selling John le Carré novel and from the director of “City of God” this film is a thriller, a political statement and a haunting romance all at once.
In a remote area of Northern Kenya, activist Tessa Quayle (Rachel Weisz) is found brutally murdered. Haunted by remorse, Justin Quayle (Ralph Fiennes), a British official, surprises everyone by embarking on a personal odyssey that will take him across three continents to discover how and why his wife died. Using his privileged access to diplomatic secrets, he will risk his own life, stopping at nothing to uncover and expose the truth – a conspiracy more far-reaching and deadly than Quayle could ever have imagined.
