A sleeper agent calling himself Henry Faber (Donald Sutherland) is actually a German Nazi spy nicknamed "the Needle" because of his preferred method of assassination, the stiletto. Cold and calculating, he is emotionlessly focused on the task at hand, whether the task is to signal a U-boat or to kill anyone who poses a threat to his mission.
