Synopsis

Set in the 1980s,  the era of Thatcher’s children and ‘loadsa money’, The Business is the story of Frankie (Danny Dyer), a young lad from the tenements of South London who finds his dreams in the idyllic South of Spain – a place where criminals live out their fantasies away from British law.

Frankie arrives in Malaga with a tin full of cash for Charlie (Tamer Hassan), an ex-con playboy heading up the local gang of ex-pats living the high life in the small Spanish town of Puerto Banus. Frankie, lured by the glitz, soon becomes Charlie’s second in command.

As Frankie becomes drawn into the world of organised crime, he loves every minute of it.  Fuelled by the money, the women and the drugs, life at the top is sweet. But things can get tough when you attract the wrong sort of attention, especially when that happens to be psycho Sonny’s girl Carly (Georgina Chapman).

Frankie’s about to find out that dreams can quickly turn vicious as loyalties shift, business gets out of control and friendships are tested to breaking point.

Synopsis

From Fernando Meirelles, the Academy Award-nominated director of City of God, comes a gripping new film that sweeps audiences along one man’s emotional and global journey to uncover the truth behind a personal loss and a worldwide conspiracy.

In a remote area of Northern Kenya, the region’s most dedicated activist, the brilliant and passionate Tessa Quayle (Rachel Weisz), has been found brutally murdered. Tessa’s travelling companion, a local doctor, appears to have fled the scene, and the evidence points to a crime of passion. Sandy Woodrow (Danny Huston), Sir Bernard Pellegrin (Bill Nighy), and the other members of the British High Commission assume that Tessa’s widower, their mild-mannered and unambitious colleague Justin Quayle (Ralph Fiennes), will leave the matter to their discretion, but against their advice, Justin takes matters into his own hands to find his wife’s killers and avenge her untimely death.

Two-time Academy Award nominee Ralph Fiennes and Rachel Weisz head the cast of the romantic thriller The Constant Gardener, adapted by Jeffrey Caine from the novel of the same name by John le Carré and filmed on location in Berlin, London, and Nairobi and numerous other parts of Kenya.
