Taken Hostage

The best, most comprehensive and clarifying documentary I’ve seen about how U.S. actions toward Iran from the 1950s onward led to the tragedy that would embroil both countries in 1979.

The English

A drama about lands shaped by violence and eroded by vengeance, a genre exercise with fantastic performances and film-caliber tech elements.
