Tommy Lee Jones stars in this suspenseful spy drama based on an
actual episode that shook the CIA to its core.
In 1964, a few months after the assassination of President Kennedy, CIA
agent Steve Daley (Jones) is approached by Yuri Nosenko (Oleg Rudnik),
who claims to be a KGB major with crucial information about Lee Harvey
Oswald as well as a Soviet "mole" in the CIA. But the Americans have
already been warned to be on the lookout for false defectors, and when
discrepancies show up in Nosanko's story, a major controversy is sparked
in U.S. intelligence circles. Is Nosanko genuine? Or an imposter out to
spread "disinformation"?
A riveting journey through the cloak and dagger labyrinth, this taut mystery
is a powerful portrayal of a real puzzle that to this day remains unsolved.
