Synopsis:

Dramatic events such as the assassination of President Kennedy or the fatal accident of Princess Diana quickly generate rumors. There is often speculation about conspiracies involving secret services. Spies simply appeal to the imagination ... The three-part documentary series Top Secret describes the history of espionage during the past 100 years. With two world wars, two ideological superpowers and a perilous arms race, the 20th century was a golden age for the secret services. But even today they have plenty to do, for example due to terrorist threats, new political conflicts and large-scale corporate espionage. In Top Secret, secret agents and other insiders tell their revealing story. Furthermore, attention is paid to legendary top spies such as Mata Hari, Richard Sorge, the British double agent Kim Philby and the mysterious Dimitri Polyakov.
