Synopsis
Every day in our country, terrorist movements and intelligence services give themselves over to a war without mercy in the name of adamant ideologies. And yet, terrorists and secret service agents lead almost the same lives. Condemned to a life in the shadows, these strategists of manipulation adhere to the same methods. Alex and Brad are two of these people.
One is the head of the DGSE (Direction Générale de la Sécurité Extérieure), France’s intelligence service, while the other runs a terrorist network. They confront each other by using the most formidable weapons available: human beings.
Secrets of State tells of their secret war through the destinies of Diane, a student recruited by the French secret service, and Pierre, a misfit delinquent who believes he’s found salvation in terrorism. Trained and indoctrinated for missions beyond their capabilities, both get caught in a spiral from which it seems there is no escape. Will they be sacrificed in the name of the “noble” causes?
