After 21 year-old Iris suffers an accident while working at a factory, she moves to a nearby port town and stumbles into a new job as receptionist and personal secretary to an uptight scientist. His peculiar line of business involves preserving customers' mementos into specimens - a lock of hair, for example, or a piece of music. Iris quickly drifts into an increasingly fetishistic relationship with her boss, while also pining for the enigmatic sailor who shares her hotel room during the hours she's at work. The Ring Finger is a visually stunning experience, laden with eroticism and beauty and set against a haunting score (composed by Portishead's Beth Gibbons), but it is Kurylenko's performance that is unforgettable as the pained and longing Iris.
