About this video
In a quiet little town by the name of Bletchley, it was there, that during the Second World War, a huge game of chess was played out, the aim of which was to crack the encoded communications of the German army.
In this game which changed the course of history, the key player was an eccentric homosexual, a non-conformist mathematician and keen cross-country runner with a taste for self-mockery: Alan Turing.
The unlikely trajectory of this genius, entwined despite himself with world events, allow us to take a fresh look at a whole section of the history of the Second World War, and discover that a close link exists between the Allied victory and the invention of the computer.
