The incredible spy thriller inspired by Josephine Baker's secret war against the Nazis. The last straw for Josephine Baker came in 1937. A decade earlier, racism had driven Josephine out of America and into the embrace of Paris' elite, where she became a huge hit - singer, dancer, movie star. But this was to be her triumphant return. So when Broadway audiences turned on her and the ugly truth of race in America hit home, she renounced her citizenship and officially became French. Then Hitler invaded and the Nazis took her new home country with their Vichy allies. By now her performances had become legendary, her eccentric personal life was the talk of Europe and she was the highest paid performer, publicly ambivalent about the war raging around her. But Josephine knew what hatred and bigotry looked like. So, when a handsome fugitive showed up at her doorstep one night, running from the Nazi invaders, she joined him and the French Resistance, secretly using her celebrity to spy behind enemy lines. What started as secret messages gleaned from high-ranking admirers - hidden in her underwear or written in invisible ink on sheet music - quickly escalated into a dangerous race to help America, the country she once hated for its bigotry, prepare for its first mass mobilization of WWII.
