A character-driven coming-of-age drama about moral conviction and institutional persecution, grounded in real events but told with warmth and a touch of irreverence.

Winner is a brilliant young misfit from Texas who finds her morals challenged while serving in the U.S. Air Force and working as an NSA contractor. A fresh take on the traditional whistleblower thriller, the coming-of-age story follows an idealistic young woman persecuted for standing by her principles.
