A biography of the English mathematician Alan Turing, who was one of the inventors of the digital computer and one of the key figures in the breaking of the Enigma code, used by the Germans to send secret orders to their U-boats in World War II. Turing was also a homosexual in Britain at a time when this was illegal, besides being a security risk. It blends history, drama, tv movie elements. The film reflects a distinct United Kingdom style and perspective. The story is brought to life by director Herbert Wise. With a runtime of 1h 31m, it offers a comfortable feature-length experience.
The main cast includes Derek Jacobi, Alun Armstrong and Blake Ritson. Behind the camera, the film is directed by Herbert Wise, written by Hugh Whitemore, produced by Rebecca Eaton and John Drury.
