Overview
Samuel, a Russian-born Jewish inventor who specialises in the development of hearing aids, is tasked with a secret mission by MI5 to use his technological expertise to contribute to western Cold War efforts. Following the tensions of the space race and the first hydrogen bomb test, Samuel's efforts factor in to the emergence of the modern world.
How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A thoughtful Cold War espionage drama that balances intimate family drama with the weight of historical moment. The series finds tension not in action but in the moral complexities of a displaced scientist caught between nations and allegiances.
