“…a true story of the largest counterfeiting operation in history, set up by the Nazis in 1936 to flood the Allied economies with bogus notes. A notorious counterfeiter incarcerated in a concentration camp is offered better treatment if he cooperates, and must choose between helping the Nazis and certain death.”
The Modern Languages Department will be running a trip to see this film. Please see Mrs Moorhouse or your languages teacher for more details.
