Synopsis:
Based on the best-selling John le Carré novel, this takes
place in a remote area of Northern Kenya, activist Tessa Quayle
(Rachel Weisz) is found brutally murdered. Tessa's companion,
a doctor, appears to have fled the scene, and the evidence points
to a crime of passion. Members of the British High Commission
in Nairobi assume that Tessa's widower, their mild-mannered and
unambitious colleague Justin Quayle (Ralph Fiennes), will leave
the matter to them. They could not be more wrong. Haunted by remorse
and jarred by rumors of his late wife's infidelities, Quayle surprises
everyone by embarking on a personal odyssey that will take him
across three continents. 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.
