Richard Gere stars in this electrifying suspense thriller with lethal confrontations, raw passion and international intrigue.

On the verge of signing a huge business deal with China, brilliant American attorney Jack Moore (Gere) is on top of the world. But his elation soon comes tumbling down after he spends the night with a beautiful woman... and is then accused of her brutal murder. At the mercy of the strict Chinese court system - where guilt is presumed - Jack finds himself completely alone... except for his court-appointed defence attorney (Bai Ling), who is dedicated to the laws of her government. But as her investigation into the case leads her closer to the truth, she is forced to believe his innocence. Acting against the court and her country, she joins him in a pulse-pounding race to the true killer... while both of their lives hang in the balance.

Controversial, suspenseful and filled with explosive action, Red Corner is a shocking and coompelling mystery where danger never lets up.
