Premise
The true story of British Intelligence operatives using unprecedented strategic operations that fool Nazi leadership, ultimately changing the course of World War II. The film follows the brilliance of British Army officers Dudley Clarke and Thomas Argyll "Tar" Robertson, who deployed an elaborate web of deception campaigns, including fictitious armies, fake military equipment, and a network of double agents to mislead Nazi Intelligence. Among them was Serbian playboy Duško Popov, a real-life double agent.[1]
