Deception. The greatest weapon in war.

In 1943, two British intelligence officers concoct Operation Mincemeat, wherein their plan to drop a corpse with false papers off the coast of Spain would fool Nazi spies into believing the Allied forces were planning to attack by way of Greece rather than Sicily.

Die Täuschung

Wir schreiben das Jahr 1943. Die Alliierten sind entschlossen, Hitlers Macht im besetzten Europa zu brechen, und planen einen Großangriff auf Sizilien. Doch sie stehen vor einer unlösbaren Aufgabe: Wie sollen sie eine riesige Invasionsstreitmacht vor einem möglichen Massaker schützen? Es ist die Aufgabe zweier bemerkenswerter Geheimdienstler, Ewen Montagu und Charles Cholmondeley, die genialste und unwahrscheinlichste Verwirrungsstrategie des Krieges zu entwerfen, in deren Mittelpunkt der ungewöhnlichste aller Geheimagenten steht: ein toter Mann…

I due straordinari agenti del controspionaggio Ewen Montagu (Colin Firth) e Charles Cholmondeley (Matthew Macfadyen) hanno il compito di escogitare la più ingegnosa e improbabile strategia di disinformazione sulla guerra facendo leva sul più insolito agente segreto: un uomo morto.
