June 6, 1944: nearly 130,000 Allied soldiers land on the beaches of Normandy in the largest amphibious invasion in history. But long before the first troops reached France, a secret war of deception was already underway. This documentary reveals how British intelligence and a network of double agents helped mislead Adolf Hitler and the German High Command in the crucial weeks before D-Day. Through Operation Fortitude, MI5 operatives created fake armies, false radio traffic, and carefully controlled intelligence designed to convince the Nazis that the real invasion would come at Pas-de-Calais instead of Normandy.

Featuring legendary spies such as Juan Pujol Garcia, code-named “Garbo,” this documentary uncovers the extraordinary espionage campaign that helped change the course of World War II. From double agents and deception networks to secret operations that fooled Hitler himself, this is the untold story behind the success of D-Day.
