Explained simply
A codebreaker studies messages written in secret codes, while a puzzle champion competes to solve challenging problems. The story brings these skills together through Anton, a former champion whose work for the CIA involved deciphering coded information.
The CIA is the United States’ foreign intelligence agency. A conspiracy is a hidden plan involving people working together; in a thriller, uncovering one often drives the investigation. Here, Anton’s search concerns his wife’s death.
The film is the first feature directed by Michael Moreci, who also wrote the screenplay. Its production in Central Illinois is part of the region’s film industry, and the producers are aiming for a cinema release next year.
