Oscar-winning filmmaker John Madden (Shakespeare in Love) directs this war drama that chronicles the secret World War II project regarded by many military historians as one of the greatest acts of wartime deception in modern history. The film explores how a small group of British intelligence agents tricked the Nazis into believing Allied forces were planning to invade Greece in order to draw the German army away from their intended — and most obvious — invasion point in Sicily. To do so, they would have to pull off a complicated feat of espionage and counter-intelligence involving a corpse, a batch of fabricated letters, and plenty of luck.
