Influential aristocrat Malcolm Fairbank decides to retire and hand over his vast empire to his children. But who will inherit the power: his daughter Florence, who has been his right hand for years, or his son Gideon, who has just been released from prison? When the father's choice sparks a true family war, Gideon vows to take revenge on his sister. Florence isn't easily intimidated, but she decides to take her groom, Sean, as her personal bodyguard. However, behind the quiet and unassuming facade of Sean lies a man with a very dangerous past: once, Sean was one of the most powerful crime bosses in England. Family secrets, power struggles, revenge, and a criminal history that can't be left behind all come together in Guy Ritchie's new film, «The Wife and the Dog».
