Activist Rachel Wiesz starts an unlikely relationship with British diplomat Ralph Fiennes, who tows the government line in Kenya. When she turns up murdered, Fiennes' search for her killer leads him to uncover a vast conspiracy involving a large pharmaceutical company. Well-intentioned thriller marred by excessive shaky cam, filters and others devices of modern cinematography designed to make it look like it was shot on the fly but actually having the opposite effect: it looks contrived and every little detail planned in advance.
