The Codebreaker Who Hacked Hitler

The Codebreaker Who Hacked Hitler

Gordon Welchman was one of the original elite codebreakers crucial to the allies defeating the Nazis in World War II. He is the forgotten genius of Bletchley Park. Filmed extensively at Bletchley Park, the centre for codebreaking operations during World War II, this documentary features the abandoned buildings where thousands of people worked tirelessly to crack the codes. Post-war, Welchman moved to the US to be at the centre of the computer revolution. Recently released top secret documents reveal that the case of Gordon Welchman reached the desk of the British prime minister, Margaret Thatcher, and then led to questions being asked in the House of Commons after Welchman’s untimely death. Welchman’s legacy continues to this day. Welchman’s pioneering work in the field of traffic analysis led directly to the modern secret surveillance state, and particularly the use of metadata – as revealed by whistleblower Edward Snowden.

It’s been described as “brave, daring, and courageous” by our friends and “stupid, dangerous, and foolish” by our parents, but we’d like to believe that ‘The Slow Ride Home’ is much more than just a crazy idea; it’s a microcosm of what we all need a little more time with – slowing things down and challenging yourself to accomplish something that once seemed impossible… like riding scooters across the country in 11 days. This adventurous and often hilarious film documents the story of eight Soldiers of Destiny Scooter Club members as they traverse from the white sand beaches of FL through some of the most beautiful – and sometimes most desolate – pockets of the United States.
