A Call to Spy details the exploits of real-life spies hired by the Special Operations Executive (SOE) and sent into France during World War II, written, produced, and starring Sarah Megan Thomas as American-born agent Virginia Hall.

The following weapons were used in the film A Call to Spy:
Handguns
Luger P08
