Despite The Falling Snow (UK-import)
Cold War thriller based on the book by Shamim Sarif, who also directs. In 1950s Moscow, communist Katya (Rebecca Ferguson) covertly spies for the Americans in the midst of the Cold War arms race. Her most important assignment to date involves extracting intelligence from prodigal government star Alexander (Sam Reid), although complications arise when she finds herself falling in love with him.
