Suggested by visno
Agent Garbo was a Spanish spy who acted as a double agent loyal to Great Britain against Nazi Germany during World War II, when he relocated to Britain to carry out fictitious spying activities for the Germans. He was given the codename Garbo by the British; their German counterparts codenamed him Alaric and referred to his non-existent spy network as "Arabal". The film will follow Agent Garbo’s entrance into the world of wartime espionage, leading all the way up to his critical misdirection before the events of D-Day; and the actor playing Agent Garbo will also play every fictional agent he created, including a pair of venezuelan brothers, a swiss-german businessman, and said businessman's ficticious widow after the businessman's imaginary demise; in this stylized drama-edy.
