A film about Colonel Stanisaw Gano, the creator of Polish intelligence during World War II. As the chief of the Second Department of the Supreme Commander's Staff in London, in 1941, he created the best Allied intelligence network not only in occupied Europe, but also in the United States and South America. and North Africa. He organized the Polish intelligence in an exceptionally modern way, which only after the war was taken over by other intelligence centers. After the war, the communist authorities treated Colonel Gano in a manner characteristic of them. By the resolution of the Provisional Government of National Unity of September 26, 1946, he was deprived of Polish citizenship, which was restored to him posthumously in 1971.
