Theatrical feature documentary on the story of Operation Ajax, the CIA/MI6 staged coup in 1953 in Iran that overthrew Prime Minister Mossadegh.
Chuck says:
Complex but rewarding, this is a deep dive into American and British espionage that reveals how the two superpowers collaborated to take down and reform the government of Iran in 1953, an operation pulled off under the nose of the international community.
The film and the investigation to piece together the story from a wide variety of sources turns into a personal quest for Director Taghi Amirani as he seeks to expose tell the truth about the injustice done to his homeland. Intelligent and engaging from start to finish.
