Carice van Houten and Hanna Alström embark on The Affair in trailer for World War II drama

February 8, 2021 by Gary Collinson

Vertical Entertainment has released a poster and trailer for The Affair, director Julius Sevcik’s adaptation of Simon Mawer’s bestselling book The Glass Room, which stars Carice van Houten (Game of Thrones) and Hanna Alström (Kingsman) as two best friends with forbidden romantic feelings for one another whose relationship is tested with the outbreak of war.

THE AFFAIR begins in 1930s Czechoslovakia, as newlyweds Viktor (Claes Bang) and Liesel Landauer (Hanna Alström) are filled with optimism and happiness in their new home. But all too soon, extramarital temptations bring out their darkest secrets and desires. As Liesel turns to her sensual friend Hana (Carice van Houten) for the passion she lacks in her marriage, Nazi troops enter the country, threatening the Landauer’s lives and the burning desire between the two women.

The Affair is set for release On Demand on March 5th 2021.
