Summary

Anna (Naomi Watts), a London-based midwife, sets out on a mission to find the family of a baby whose teenage mother dies in childbirth at her hospital. As her investigation leads her into a dark network of human traffickers, she soon becomes dangerously entangled with the Russian crime family running it, and their violent henchman, Nikolai (Viggo Mortensen).

Featuring incredible performances, including an Oscar-nominated turn from Mortensen, this masterpiece from David Cronenberg received widespread acclaim, winning seven Genie Awards and the TIFF People’s Choice Award.

“A film that takes us beyond crime and London and the Russian mafia and into the mystifying realms of human nature.” — Roger Ebert, The Chicago Sun Times
 

Cast Viggo Mortensen, Naomi Watts, Vincent Cassel
