Atomic Blonde

London, November 1989. Beautiful and lethal, MI6 agent Lorraine Broughton is being interrogated by her superior Eric Gray, and against her objections CIA agent Emmett Kurzfeld, it a debrief concerning a just concluded mission in Berlin "gone wrong" in certain respects in what ended up being the approach to the fall of the wall. Murdered MI6 agent James Gascoine was supposed to have a comprehensive list of secret agents on both sides given to him by a Stasi agent named Spyglass, that list getting in the wrong hands i.e. the KGB which would tip the balance of the Cold War. In Gascoine's death, the list had gone missing, Broughton dispatched to Berlin undercover to recover the list from who they believe currently has it, a KGB agent named Yuri Bakhtin, she to work with MI6's Berlin section chief David Percival, who has immersed himself in the bohemian Berlin lifestyle both as a cover but also as a personal choice. Broughton felt that there was someone tipping off the KGB as she believed her cover was blown as soon as she arrived in Berlin, which leads to the reason for her objection of Kurzfeld being in the meeting in she not wanting to divulge information that he should perhaps not know: that she had a secondary mission in Berlin, namely to discover the identity of a mole who had long been giving MI6 problems, that agent going by the code name Satchel. She didn't know if Satchel was the source of the leak of her identity to the KGB and/or the young, mysterious woman she noticed following her ever since her arrival in town. With regard to the list, she learned that Spyglass himself could be as important an asset to the West as the list, he wanting to defect however with conditions.
