Film biography:

In the context of WW2 narratives, the story of Operation Mincemeat is a unique, bizarre, and seductive cinematic blend of high-level espionage and ingenious fiction, where the stakes could hardly be higher. Based on a true story and featuring an all-star cast, the script fuses multiple strands and moods: tense, romantic, thrilling, unexpectedly funny, and endlessly surprising. It tells a richly human story of the soldiers we seldom see, who fight a different kind of war in shadows and deception, haunted by the knowledge that certainty and guarantee of success are nowhere to be found.
