Set in 1943, Operation Mincemeat follows the extraordinary true story of two British intelligence officers, Ewen Montagu and Charles Cholmondeley, who devise an improbable disinformation strategy to protect the Allied invasion of Sicily. To deceive German forces into believing the target is Greece, they execute a bizarre plan centered on a "secret agent" who is actually a deceased vagrant carrying forged documents. This high-stakes gamble of "the man who never was" tests the nerves of its creators as they attempt to alter the course of World War II through a masterclass in espionage and deception.
