One of my most anticipated films this year is Matt Johnson‘s (The Dirties) latest, Operation Avalanche, which tells the story of a couple of CIA agents who infiltrate NASA in the guise of documentary filmmakers to uncover the secrets behind the moon landing.
Having heard about this project several years ago from Matt Johnson when he was on the podcast, I’ve been eagerly awaiting the release and can’t wait to see Operation Avalanche when it hits theaters September 16th.
In 1967, during the height of the Cold War, two young CIA agents (Matt Johnson and Owen Williams) go undercover at NASA to investigate a possible Russian mole. In disguise as documentary filmmakers, they tap phones and break into offices while purporting to learn more about the Apollo project. But when they end up uncovering a shocking NASA secret – and a major government cover-up – they decide to embark on a new mission that may put their own lives at risk.
