Atlas is a ten-minute short film that explores themes of gender and service during an incredibly formative moment in our history – the Second World War. It is inspired by the powerful true story of Caroline Chojecki MBE, a naval intelligence analyst based at Bletchley Park during the War.

Atlas tells the story of C, a twenty-four year old U-Boat specialist who has proved her worth in the complicated web of Naval Intelligence but still faces antagonism from her male colleagues. From Bletchley Park to the War Rooms and Whitehall, intrigue pervades every twist and turn of C’s journey through the story and its characters, each of whom presenting mysterious drives. Atlas is truly like no war story told before, while C represents a new kind of war hero: an incredibly capable yet unappreciated woman determined to serve her country.

Atlas is written & directed by Freddie Green (Caroline Chojecki's grandson) and produced by James Wilkinson.
