In September 1940, as bombs fell over London, whispers in Berlin told a different story — one of romance, scandal, and potential betrayal.
Behind the royal titles and elegant portraits stood Wallis Simpson, the American woman for whom King Edward VIII gave up the British throne.
To the Nazis, she was more than a symbol of love — she was a possible ally. German intelligence files spoke of her private meetings with Joachim von Ribbentrop, Hitler’s foreign minister, and a plan — Operation Willi — to restore Edward as a puppet king once Britain fell.

This film uncovers the extraordinary life of Wallis Simpson:
from her Baltimore childhood and her two failed marriages,
to her rise in London high society, her controversial love affair with the prince,
and her years in exile as the Duchess of Windsor, haunted by accusations of Nazi sympathy.

Was she a manipulative schemer, a tragic lover, or merely a woman trapped by history? Her name remains forever linked to abdication, scandal, and the shadow of war.
