Killing Me Softly

Erotic thriller in which beautiful designer Alice (Heather Graham) embarks on a passionate affair with Adam (Joseph Fiennes) a revered mountaineer, whom she meets by chance on the streets of London.

Within days Adam proposes and Alice, carried away by their intense physical passion, leaves her long-term boyfriend to be with him.

Good-looking, famous and above all devoted, it seems that the only shadow in Adam's life is the guilt he feels over his former girlfriend, who died whilst climbing with him. Soon however, a series of anonymous letters force Alice to recognise that she knows virtually nothing about the man she loves, and, as she pieces his past together she is drawn into a web of obsession and jealousy which soon leaves her fearing for her life.

Based on the best selling novel by Nicci French, Killing Me Softly is directed by Chen Kaige, the award-winning director of Farewell My Concubine.
