Synopsis:
Based on the number one international bestselling novel by Alessandro Baricco. In the 1860s, Herve Joncour (Michael Pitt), a married silkworm merchant from France, travels to Japan on business. While there, he meets a beautiful European woman who is the concubine of a local baron. Because they don't speak the same language, she gives him a note, which he cannot have translated until he arrives back in France. He becomes obsessed with her and returns to Japan where they conduct a secret affair, but Herve's wife Helene (Keira Knightley) begins to suspect. A film of painterly beauty and ravishing romance, Silk is a historically rapturous epic romance of east meets west.
