Official secrets of

Maria Alario

An intriguing thriller from start to finish. There are no major twists, because the director focuses above all on the psychological motive of the protagonist, Katherine (Keira Knightley), which is to "stop a war and save lives". There are some caged words to be released for the good of the community and it doesn't matter if it could be his own life that ends up in that cage. No state secret, in fact, can be stronger than the warrior spirit of this woman, who strongly believes in the sense of belonging. "I want to see the sea" Katherine exclaims at a certain point in the film, feeling her freedom and that of her family strongly threatened. man next to her. But she proceeds courageously along the path of truth, because she knows that a citizen is educated only if, as Canivez states, he is capable of grasping the illegitimacy of any law that forces him not to respect human beings, to consider them as simple things. We are not fish trapped in a net, but thinking minds with the duty to safeguard this poor humanity of ours. Based on true events. Absolutely worth seeing, especially in light of current news events.
