Nancy Wake escaped occupied France on foot over the Pyrenees, was recaptured, escaped again, and eventually became one of the Gestapo's most hunted operatives, with a bounty on her head and the codename "White Mouse." This film traces her path from New Zealand-born adventurer to ambulance driver in the fall of France, then to the escape networks smuggling Allied airmen south, and finally to her parachute drop back into the Auvergne as a Special Operations Executive agent organizing and arming Maquis resistance fighters. Interviews with historians and archival photographs and footage reconstruct the raids, the betrayals, and the firefights she survived, including her own account of cycling hundreds of miles to replace lost radio codes. The film does not shy from the brutality she operated under, detailing the fate of captured agents and the risks of working inside networks the Gestapo was actively dismantling. It closes with her decorations after the war and the long gap before her contribution was widely recognized, leaving a portrait of someone the enemy considered more dangerous than most men in uniform.
