“A Call to Spy is a compelling tale of extraordinary courage and bravery” The Times

Written by and starring Sarah Megan Thomas (Equity), this British World War II thriller follows Churchill’s spy agency SOE who recruit civilian women and train them to be spies.

In the beginning of WWII, with Britain becoming desperate, Churchill orders his new
spy agency — the Special Operations Executive (SOE) — to recruit and train women
as spies.

Their daunting mission: conduct sabotage and build a resistance. SOE’s
“spymistress,” Vera Atkins (Stana Katic), recruits two unusual candidates: Virginia
Hall (Sarah Megan Thomas), an ambitious American with a wooden leg, and Noor
Inayat Khan (Radhika Atpe), a Muslim pacifist. Together, these women help to
undermine the Nazi regime in France, leaving an unmistakable legacy in their wake.

INSPIRED BY TRUE STORIES, this is the untold story about the personal sacrifice
of courageous individuals who put their lives on the line to fight for freedom.

Featuring strong performances from Sarah Megan Thomas (Equity), Stana Katic (Castle) and Radhika Apte (The Wedding Guest).

Director: Lydia Dean Pilcher (‘Radium Girls’)

When two paintings are stolen from Oslo-based artist Barbora Kysilkova, the police catch the thieves within a few days. But the paintings are never found. Barbora attends the court case hoping to find clues for where they can be but finds herself compelled to walk over to one of the criminals to ask another question: “I wonder if I could paint you?” Thief Karl-Bertil answers without hesitation: “That would be possible.”
Thus begins the relationship between an artist and her unlikely muse—which soon evolves into an even more unlikely friendship. Barbora eventually becomes Karl-Bertil’s closest ally when he is severely hurt in a car crash and needs full time care. Filmed over three years, the documentary follows a remarkable story of human connection that takes turns that one could never have imagined.
