I just came upon a mini-series on Netflix called "The Heavy Water War" which is about the race between the Axis and Allied powers to harness the atom and create a nuclear weapon.

It is very well acted and shot. One interesting point is that all of the actors speak in their native tongues with English subtitles, including the English. So, we have Norwegians speaking Norwegian, Germans speaking German, etc. At first I thought it would be distracting, however it actually improves the series and I'd like to see more of the same. Six episodes, enjoy!!
