Official Secrets
“Nothing is more dangerous than the truth.”
Director
Gavin Hood
Screenplay
Gavin Hood, Gregory Bernstein
Based on true events, it tells the story of Katharine Gun, a translator for British intelligence who, on the eve of the 2003 invasion of Iraq, leaked a secret NSA memo to the press. The document revealed an illegal joint U.S.-U.K. spying operation to pressure and blackmail the countries of the U.N. Security Council into voting in favor of the war. A thriller of conscience about a whistleblower who risked her freedom to tell the truth, with the pulse of a courtroom and espionage drama.
