SYNOPSIS:
A Woman of No Importance (2019) sheds light on the shadowy world of wartime espionage and the career of one of the Allies' most effective spies in the battle against Nazi Germany Virginia Hall. In these blinks, we'll follow Virginia from her Maryland home to the jazz clubs of interwar Paris and the warren-like streets of Lyon, the city in which she learned her trade. Along the way, you'll discover how the "limping lady" dodged Gestapo agents, martialled the French resistance and revolutionized spycraft.
