The truth needs no translation.
From Academy Award winner Sydney Pollack, the director behind some of the
most compelling and provocative thrillers of the last two decades (Three Days
of the Condor, Absence of Malice, The Firm), comes a fresh take on contemporary
suspense: an intricate, knife’s-edge drama that unfolds against our 21st
Century world of international terror and inside the United Nations’ hidden
corridors of power. Academy Award winners NICOLE KIDMAN and SEAN PENN star
in The Interpreter, the story of two opposite people who unexpectedly collide
within a maze of mounting paranoia, personal secrets and explosive global events.
Shot on location in Manhattan and Southern Africa, The Interpreter is the first
motion picture in history to receive inside access to the United Nations’ headquarters
(which is officially international territory) in New York.
The escalating events begin when African-born U.N. translator Silvia Broome
(Kidman) alleges that she has overheard a death threat against an African head
of state, spoken in a rare dialect few people other than Silvia can understand.
With the words “The Teacher will never leave this room alive,” in
an instant, Silvia’s life is turned upside down as she becomes a hunted
target of the killers. Placed under the protection of federal agent Tobin Keller
(Penn), Silvia’s world only grows more nightmarish. As Keller digs deeper
into his eyewitness’ past and her secretive world of global connections,
the more suspicious he becomes that she herself might be involved in the conspiracy.
With every step of the way, he finds more reasons to mistrust her.
Is Sylvia a victim? A suspect? Or something else entirely? And can Tobin, coping
with his own personal heartache, keep her safe? Though they must depend on
one another, Silvia and Tobin couldn’t be more different. Silvia’s
strengths are words, diplomacy and the subtleties of meaning, while Tobin is
all about instinct, action and reading into the most primal human behaviors.
Now, as the danger of a major assassination on U.S. soil grows and Silvia’s
life hangs in the balance, Silvia and Tobin play out a gripping dance of evasion
and revelation that keeps them both guessing as they race to stop a terrifying
international crisis before it’s too late.
