The Imitation Game
The true enigma was the man who cracked the code.
Directed by Morten Tyldum
Produced by Bristol Automotive, Black Bear Pictures
A tense, intellectually demanding biographical thriller about a brilliant but isolated mathematician racing to break Nazi codes while grappling with persecution and existential isolation.
Based on the real life story of legendary cryptanalyst Alan Turing, the film portrays the nail-biting race against time by Turing and his brilliant team of code-breakers at Britain's top-secret Government Code and Cypher School at Bletchley Park, during the darkest days of World War II.
