Well, what a surprise to watch this episode directed by Robert Mulligan himself, and starring Paul Newman in a supporting character. Yes, folks, Paul Newman !!
The tale of a woman who lives behind the iron curtain, in a eastern Europe country, and who wants to join her fiancé, outside the border. And in this purpose, she has to trust a very important man of the state. A kind of official diplomat, something like that...She will be able to get her passport for travelling outside the country if she helps the "diplomat" - in fact a member of the underground opposition to the regime - to carry a message for the western espionage services...
A very good story, but so bitter. Look for Paul Newman in a very surprising character.
