In the film, when Gun is sent an email from someone high up in the U.S. Security Counsel to pass its war resolution. The movie tells the story of Katharine Gun (played by Keira Knightley), a translator with the U.K.'s GCHQ who, in 2003, leaked top secret documents to journalist Martin Bright (Matt Smith) that revealed that the American government's plans to apply pressure on members of the U.N. president is accused of pressuring foreign governments for political gain, the story behind the film Official Secrets seems particularly timely.
