Spycraft
On Netflix
A cerebral, interview-driven documentary that treats espionage as a historical and technological subject rather than a thriller, grounded in expert testimony and archival material.
The spy game is a serious business, and throughout history, the tools and technologies developed for it have mattered as much as the spies themselves.
