This documentary explores the life of Morris "Moe" Berg, a pioneering Jewish athlete who had an unlikely second career as a spy. Beginning as a promising baseball player for five major league teams during baseball's Golden Age, Berg’s story takes a surprising turn when he becomes an operative for the OSS during World War II. The film combines rare historical footage with interviews from family members and sports figures to reveal this extraordinary and largely unknown chapter of American history.
