Summary: In the vein of The Lives Of Others and based on an incredible true story, Farewell is an espionage film about events that changed history. In 1981, Colonel Grigoriev (Emir Kusturica) of the KGB, disenchanted with the Communist ideal, decides he is going to change the world. Discreetly, he makes contact with Pierre (Guillaume Canet), a French engineer working in Moscow and little by little passes on documents to him – mainly concerning the United States – containing information which would constitute the most important Cold War espionage operation known to date.
