5 Fingers

CrimeDramaRomanceThriller108 min

In wartime Ankara, James Mason is the British ambassador’s valet, quietly photographing secret documents and selling them to the Germans under the name Cicero. The arrangement gives him money and leverage, but it also pulls him into a tense space between embassies, intelligence officers, and his own ambitions. Danielle Darrieux’s refugee Polish countess figures into the future he’s trying to build for himself as the trade in stolen information grows riskier and the war closes in around every private deal.
