Director : Fernando Meirelles
Running Time : 124 mins
Justin Quayle (Fiennes) investigates the death of his wife, Tessa (Weisz), a civil rights activist in Northern Kenya, when she is found dead. Rumours fly that her death was a crime of passion and that she was killed by her lover, but Justin is determined to prove the rumours wrong and discover what actually did happen to his wife, but as he digs deeper he finds that her death may well have been related to her whistle blowing in regards to the illegal practices being used in the village where she worked.
Fiennes and Weisz are both good in this political drama. Fiennes’ unwavering faith in the love of his dead wife really is the cornerstone of this story which, without that element, would have been just another movie about politics being chosen over the lives of starving millions.
