the only woman

Vienna, 1933. For Hedy Kiesler, a young Jewish actress, her beauty has been both her salvation and her torment: it protected her from the Nazis, but led her to an oppressive marriage with Hitler and Mussolini's arms dealer. Underestimated by everyone around her, she overheard the Third Reich's secret plans when accompanying her husband to parties and business dinners.
Torn between glamour and guilt for being privileged, she decided to escape to Hollywood with a new name: Hedy Lamarr. She soon became an icon of American cinema. No one in her new life suspected that she possessed confidential information about the Nazis, or that she herself harbored an even greater secret: that she was a scientist capable of developing the technology needed to quickly end the war. Provided they would listen to her.
