CNN – Secrets and Spies: A Nuclear Game (2023) Part 2: Traitors
English | Documentary | Size: 1.08 GB
CNN Original Series “Secrets & Spies: A Nuclear Game” tracks the spies operating behind the scenes in the 1980s as the Cold War brings two superpowers to the brink of nuclear war.
In the 1980s, the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. pushed the world to the brink of global disaster as each nation rushed to build up its nuclear arsenal. As that was going on, each nation felt the acute need to spy on the other.
This razor-sharp series examines the tenuousness of global geopolitics during the Cold War through the lens of two notorious double agents: Oleg Gordievsky and Aldrich Ames. While the world was on the brink of global disaster, history was being made in the shadows. As President Ronald Reagan and Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher maneuver on the world stage to try to resolve the Cold War, it is in fact their agents that are pulling the strings.
“There’s a mole somewhere!” Gordievsky, the top KGB double agent for the British, proves invaluable by giving insight into the Soviet mindset. In the West, Aldrich is the head of the Soviet Desk for the CIA when he decides to turn traitor and work for the KGB. As the spy wars heat up in the shadows, they threaten to destabilize diplomatic efforts. The betrayals deepen, lives are lost, and some spies must embark on a daring escape.
“Secrets & Spies: A Nuclear Game” includes rare archival interviews and never-before-heard audio from double agents Gordievsky and Ames, as well as interviews with former CIA, FBI, MI6, MI5, KGB officers and former aides to Prime Minister Thatcher & President Reagan.
Part 2: Traitors
Spies work behind the scenes as the superpowers enter a new era; intelligence pushes world leaders towards a more peaceful approach; but, a new danger is lurking in the shadows.
With Gordievsky’s help, Britain identifies Mikhail Gorbachev as a possible new contender for Soviet leader; he could be the ticket to better relations between east and west. But fragile steps towards diplomacy are threatened by the vested interests of other spies still stuck in the old-world order.
The CIA is set on knowing who Britain’s super spy is, but their head of Soviet counterintelligence, Aldrich Ames, is getting disillusioned. He turns traitor for a paltry sum, and shortly afterwards, Gordievsky is summoned back to Russia to almost certain danger.
