Based of the true story of Alan Turing (Derek Jacobi), this drama depicts various periods in the pioneering British mathematician's life. The film closely recounts his activity during World War II, when his code-breaking Turing Machine proved to be a major military asset, helping the Allies to defeat the Nazis.

An openly gay man living in an intolerant time, Turing faced challenges due to his sexual orientation, and his intellectual genius was offset by his troubled personal life.
