Academy Award® Winners Christoph Waltz (Django Unchained), Vanessa Redgrave (Julia) and Academy Award® Nominee Annette Bening (American Beauty) deliver “outstanding performances” (Oleg Ivanov, Slant Magazine) in this thrilling true story filled with twists, turns, and political turmoil. Waltz stars as Ulrich Mott, an eccentric and smooth-talking social climber who seems to have everyone in Washington, D.C. wrapped around his finger. But when his wealthy, well-connected and much older wife (Redgrave) turns up dead in their home, her daughter Amanda (Bening) suspects Ulrich may not be all that he seems as the police investigation begins to uncover a larger deception that goes far deeper than anyone ever imagined.
