Official Secrets 2019 720p WEB-DL H264 BONE

Is a dramatization of the case of Katharine Gun. It's early 2003, and Katharine works as a mid-level agent at Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ), an arm of British Intelligence, her work largely in translation. She is the type who yells at the television screen when she sees things on the news which she knows is deliberate misinformation, currently most irking her being lies told by Prime Minister Tony Blair concerning the situation in Iraq. She thus quietly reacts with anger when an email, with a memo attached, is circulated to agents at her level regarding a US led but UK supported operation for them to obtain any dirt on the current smaller non-permanent members of the UN Security Council to blackmail them into voting affirmatively on the resolution to enter into war with Iraq regardless of if there is any legitimate reason to do so. She ultimately decides to send the memo to an activist friend to get her to work behind the scenes to right what Katharine sees as the illegal wrong of the memo request, and despite she knowing her action itself illegal in contravening the Official Secrets Act. The memo works its way to several British news outlets, each which has to decide what to do with it beyond verifying its authenticity. One of those, The Observer, has a pro-war stance at the corporate level but not at the reporter level. What happens with her leak is far beyond what Katharine thought would happen, the leak working its way back to her which would only cause additional issues in her life in she being married to Iraqi national, Yasar Gun.
