Another Country is a 1984 British romantic historical drama film directed by Marek Kanievska and written by Julian Mitchell, adapted from his 1981 stage play of the same name. The film stars Rupert Everett as Guy Bennett, with Colin Firth making his feature film debut. Loosely inspired by the life of British spy and double agent Guy Burgess, the narrative follows Bennett, a student at an elite English public school in the 1930s, as he confronts the rigid expectations of the institution while grappling with his homosexuality and growing attraction to Marxist ideology.
