Ralph Fiennes plays Lawrence as a broken man drowning in diplomatic backrooms. No deserts, just damage.
In 1919, the great English military man T. E. Lawrence tries to help Emir Feisal, ruler of Arabia, retain his political power during the Conference of Peace in Paris.

Sharp political maneuvering that trusts your intelligence.
