What is Trust about?
Trust opens in 1973 with the kidnapping of John Paul Getty III (Dickinson), heir to the Getty fortune, in Rome.
His captors bank on a multi-million dollar ransom, but back in England Paul’s wealthy grandfather (Sutherland) refuses to pay up.
With Paul’s father (Esper) lost in a drug-induced daze, it is left to Paul’s mother - the penniless Gail Getty (Swank) - to negotiate with both the increasingly desperate kidnappers and her stubborn former father-in-law to save her son.
Trust examines the corrosive power of money and explores the complexities at the heart of every family, rich or poor.
