Peter Stephan Jungk’s fascinating documentary retraces the path of his great-aunt Edith Tudor-Hart, née Suschitzky, from her Viennese youth through her years as a Soviet spy in Great Britain. Her life was marked by tumultuous love affairs, a short-lived marriage, a son who became mentally ill at an early age, a Bauhaus education, unheralded work as a photographer and her recruitment of MI5 agent Kim Philby to spy for the Soviets.
