《特殊关系》讲述了1997年至2000年期间，当时的英国首相托尼·布莱尔与当时的美国总统比尔·克林顿之间的“亲密联系”，同时电影还将重点展现克林顿与白宫实习生莱温斯基在1995年到1997年期间的“不正当关系”，以及此事被曝光后是如何险些令克林顿下台的。
Plot Summary:In 1992, Labour leader Tony Blair goes to America and is impressed by the policies of President Bill Clinton, which he uses to reshape his party. Two years later, he is invited back for an audience with Clinton, who, rightly, predicts that he will be Britain's next Prime Minister. Thus begins the 'special relationship' between the two, though Clinton is clearly the senior partner with Blair seeking his advice on Northern Ireland. The situation in Kosovo however reverses the roles as Blair forces American intervention by a reluctant president and is seen in the American media as the hero of the hour. As Clinton accuses his ally of stabbing him in the back the special relationship starts to sour and, with Clinton ultimately out of the White House, Blair takes his first photo call with the next incumbent, George W. Bush.
