Surveillance Secrets

Synopsis

Ever wondered what it would be like to be a spy? Ever fancied yourself as a bit of a James Bond?
Join Fabian and the team in this feature length documentary film that will blow the lid on the secret world of espionage and surveillance. This fly-on-the-wall documentary plunges the viewer on a journey of suspense into espionage, surveillance tactics and the closely-guarded techniques currently in use by elite agencies like MI5, MI6, FBI, CIA, Special Air Service, Counter Terrorism Units and undercover law enforcement.
Filmed across various locations around Greater Manchester and London, Surveillance Secrets is a docufilm about adventure, excitement and intrigue .... As long as you accept that things are never always quite what they seem. The film follows a group of private investigators, covert surveillance operatives, former military, and law enforcement officers, taking the viewer through a full spectrum of espionage techniques, including foot surveillance, mobile surveillance, maintaining a false identity, 'going grey' - the ability to blend into any given environment, specialist surveillance equipment, planning and reconnaissance.
