A love story set in the 1920s about a young English couple - a conservative doctor and a restless society girl - who marry hastily and then relocate to Hong Kong. There they betray each other easily, and find an unexpected chance at redemption and happiness while on a deadly journey into the heart of ancient China.
Based on the novel by W Somerset Maugham, which was made into a film in 1934, and again in 1957 ('The Seventh Sin'). Edward Norton and Naomi Watts star. Directed by John Curran ('We don't live here anymore').
