The wife of a British diplomat in Africa is murdered because she has uncovered an illegal and destructive trade in medicines for the local population. Her husband sets out to track down her killers, and the trail leads all the way back to the Foreign Office in London. This film is a stark reminder of how politics and politicians can undermine compassionate intentions.

A gripping thriller starring Ralph Fiennes and Rachel Weisz made by City of God director Fernando Meirelles and based on the novel by John le Carré.

“one of the year's best films” Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
