Hassani Shapi

Irina Palm -- Maggie, a conservative middle-aged widow desperate to raise money to pay for her grandson's medical bills, takes a hostess job in a sex club.

When the suave Agent 007 (Pierce Brosnan) is assigned to protect a beautiful billionaire oil heiress (Sophia Marceau), he is catapulted into a passionate, adrenaline-charged adventure against one of his most deadly adversaries: Renard (Robert Carlyle), a nuclear-obsessed ruthless anarchist whose total imperviousness to pain makes him a virtually unstoppable enemy who is seeking to control the world's oil supply.

Marianne Faithfull stars as Maggie, a middle-aged widow who, desperate to raise money to pay for her grandson's medical bills, takes a hostess job in a sex club. She soon transforms herself into the much sought after and highly paid 'Irina Palm'. Along with her new persona, Maggie gains renewed self-confidence, realizing she is not as old and unattractive as she thought. But her two worlds collide as her clandestine existence provokes the suspicions of her family and inquisitive neighbors alike. IRINA PALM had its international premiere at this year's Berlin International Film Festival, where it screened in main competition.
