Hervé Joncour's (Michael Pitt) devotion to his beautiful bride (Keira Knightley) is tested by increasingly, dangerous trade missions in search of silkworms for his towns survival. From his journeys to Japan, Hervé brings great wealth for his village, but with each return to the Far East he becomes torn by the temptation of a local warlords sensuous concubine and his love for Hèléne.

A romantic/dramatic film in which I didn't notice a single emotion. That’s too bad. In terms of the visuals I have no reservations, but everything else was worthless. Starting with the unsympathetic Michael Pitt (the man should only play negative characters and not venture into other genres) and ending with the strangely bland Keira Knightley (her worst role I've seen so far).
