Studio Synopsis:
A suspense-filled glimpse into the dark corridors of
political power, FAIR GAME is a riveting
action-thriller based on the autobiography of
real-life undercover CIA operative VALERIE PLAME
(Naomi Watts), whose career was destroyed and
marriage strained to its limits when her covert
identity was exposed by a politically motivated
press leak.
As a covert officer in the CIA's
Counter-Proliferation Division, Valerie leads an
investigation into the existence of weapons of mass
destruction in Iraq. Valerie's husband, diplomat JOE
WILSON (Sean Penn), is drawn into the investigation
to substantiate an alleged sale of enriched uranium
from Niger. But when the administration ignores his
findings and uses the issue to support the call to
war, Joe writes a New York Times editorial outlining
his conclusions and ignites a firestorm of
controversy.
