Our Kind of Traitor
Synopsis
A young English couple bond with an enigmatic Russian businessman after a chance encounter on holiday. What they don’t know is that he is a gangster, seeking to defect to the British secret service before his rivals have a chance to murder him, and he has chosen them as his lifeline.
The couple’s recruitment is followed by a deadly chase, which takes them from the souks of Marrakech to London, to the French Open Final in Paris and finally to a thrilling climax in the Swiss Alps.
