Red Sparrow 2018 Full Movie

Red Sparrow: A Thrilling Espionage Story

In modern-day Russia, beautiful Dominika Egorova is a famous ballerina who supports her ill mother. After her leg is badly broken in a concert, Dominika is approached by her uncle Ivan, the deputy director of the SVR. She is tasked with seducing Dimitry Ustinov, a Russian gangster, in exchange for her mother’s continued medical care. Meeting at a bar, the two go to her private room, where he rapes her. During this, he is killed by Sergei Matorin, an SVR operative authorized by Ivan. Ivan offers Dominika a choice: become an SVR operative, or be executed for witnessing Ustinov’s assassination.

The CIA Operative and the Sparrow

Nate Nash is a CIA operative working in Moscow. While meeting with a Russian mole code-named Marble in Gorky Park, they are confronted by the police. Nash creates a diversion to ensure his contact escapes unidentified. Nash is reassigned to the U.S. but insists he is the only person Marble will work with. Since he cannot return to Russia, he is assigned to Budapest to reestablish contact with Marble, which the SVR also deduce.

Training and Betrayal

Dominika is sent to State School 4, a brutal specialist training school for “Sparrows”—operatives capable of seducing their targets with sexpionage. Dominika excels in her training, despite some friction with her trainer, known only as the Matron. Against Matron’s recommendation, Ivan and General Vladimir Korchnoi, a high-ranking official working with Ivan, decide that Dominika is ready for an assignment in Budapest—to gain Nash’s trust and expose Marble’s identity.

In Budapest, Dominika lives with another “sparrow” named Marta, and is supervised by station chief Maxim Volontov. Dominika makes contact with Nash, who quickly determines she is a Russian intelligence operative and attempts to convince her to defect.

Double Agent

Dominika inspects Marta’s room and finds she has been assigned to buy classified intelligence from Stephanie Boucher, chief of staff to a U.S. Senator. When Ivan pressures Dominika about her slow progress with Nash, Dominika claims to be helping Marta with Boucher as well. Marta is brutally killed by the SVR for learning about Dominika’s earlier incident with the gangster. Dominika is warned this will happen to her if she fails. Dominika contacts Nash, agrees to become a double agent in exchange for protection for her and her mother, and has sex with him.

A Game of Deception

Under Russian orders, Dominika travels to London with Volontov to meet Boucher and complete the trade, but covertly switches out the intelligence Boucher supplies with CIA-supplied disinformation. After the meeting, Boucher realizes that she is being observed by American intelligence agents; she panics, backs into traffic and is killed. Russian agents observing Boucher realize their mission has been compromised. Suspected of tipping off the Americans, Dominika and Volontov are recalled to Moscow where they are tortured and interrogated for days.

The Ultimate Choice

Volontov is executed, but Dominika’s claims of innocence are eventually believed by Ivan. She is allowed to return to Budapest to continue her mission of extracting Marble’s identity from Nash. Instead, she convinces Nash to relocate her and her mother to America. After spending the night with Nash, Dominika awakes to find him being tortured by Matorin for Marble’s identity. She initially assists until Matorin lowers his guard and she kills him, but is badly injured while doing so.

A Twist in the Tale

She awakes in a hospital where Korchnoi reveals himself as Marble. He explains that he was patriotic, but became disillusioned when a bureaucrat he had once offended refused to allow an American doctor to operate on his sick wife. Dominika is honored in a military ceremony after she returns to Russia. Back in Russia, Dominika lives with her mother, and receives a phone call from an unknown person who plays Grieg’s piano concerto, which she had told Nash was the piece to which she danced her first solo performance.
