Black Bag plot recap, spoiler-light
In the spy thriller Black Bag, National Cyber Security Centre officer George Woodhouse receives a week to find the leak of a top-secret software called Severus. Suspicion immediately falls on his wife and fellow operative, Kathryn. To uncover the truth, George hosts a tense dinner party where he drugs his colleagues and initiates a psychological game, exposing simmering infidelities and personal secrets.
As the investigation deepens, George tracks Kathryn to Zurich via a suspicious movie ticket, discovering a mysterious bank account with millions in unexplained funds. He uses spy satellites to watch her meet a Russian dissident, unaware that this maneuver coincides with the disappearance of another operative and a stolen copy of Severus. Soon, George and Kathryn realize they are being manipulated by higher-ups aiming to destabilize the Russian government through a disastrous nuclear meltdown. With the help of targeted intelligence tracking and a timely drone strike, the couple works to neutralize the immediate threat while preparing to unmask the true conspirators within their own agency.
