For over thirty years after World War II, German naval commanders believed their U-boats were defeated by Allied radar and sheer industrial strength.
But the truth was far more devastating.
From 1940 onward, British codebreakers at Bletchley Park had been quietly reading every secret German Enigma message — guiding convoys, intercepting U-boats, and turning the tide of war in the Atlantic.
This documentary uncovers how blind faith in the Enigma machine cost Germany thousands of ships, tens of thousands of submariners, and ultimately, the war itself.
Featuring the origins of Enigma in 1930s Poland, Alan Turing’s wartime breakthroughs, and Admiral Karl Dönitz’s disbelief at Nuremberg, this is the untold story of how a single secret — kept for three decades — changed world history.
