Description

From escaping Nazi Germany as a Jewish refugee to becoming the first CIA Station chief in post-war Berlin and a key player in Cold War espionage, THE LAST SPY is a riveting documentary honoring the life of 100-year-old CIA spymaster Peter Sichel. Sichel's story inspires while also providing insights to late 20th century geopolitics and espionage that go beyond what is depicted onscreen in fiction.
