Read MoreCollapse
After losing his wife, daughter, and eyesight in the violent political unrest of 1930s Shanghai, former diplomat Todd Jackson (Ralph Fiennes) develops an obsession with creating the perfect, most comfortable and elegant bar. As he explores seedy dives, searching for the one he could convert, he meets a White Russian refugee (Natasha Richardson) who was once a countess but now works as a taxi driver and sometimes prostitute in order to support her late husband's family. Todd takes her on as a partner and names the bar The White Countess, though he does not know where his dealings with the shadowy woman will lead.
