From the director of The Bourne Identity comes this riveting thriller inspired by the experiences of real-life CIA officer Valerie Plame (Oscar® nominee Naomi Watts). When Plame's retired ambassador husband Joe Wilson (Academy Award® winner Sean Penn) writes a newspaper article challenging the basis for the U.S. war on Iraq, the White House leaks Plame's undercover identity—leaving her contacts vulnerable, her career in shambles, and her life in danger.
