Plot Summary: | | |
A story about theft, both criminal and emotional, ''Breaking and Entering'' follows a disparate group of long-term Londoners and new arrivals whose lives intersect in the inner-city area of King's Cross. ''Breaking and Entering'' tells the story of a series of thefts—some criminal, some emotional—set against the backdrop of a changing London whose geographical and cultural landscape is in flux. The central character, Will (Jude Law), is a successful landscape architect. His young, vibrant company, which he runs with business partner, Sandy (Martin Freeman), has recently relocated to King's Cross, the centre of the most ambitious urban regeneration site in Europe. Their state-of-the-art office immediately attracts the attention of a local group of thieves. After one of the break-ins, Will follows 15-year-old freerunner Miro (Rafi Gavron) back to the apartment he shares with his mother, Amira (Juliette Binoche)—a refugee from Bosnia. With his relationship to Liv (Robin Wright Penn)—his beautiful Swedish partner—already in crisis, Will embarks on a passionate journey into both the wilder side of himself and the city in which he lives. |
