Description
An in-depth, intimate exploration of the true story behind Ben Affleck’s Oscar-winning film *Argo*. In this gripping new documentary, the story of the “Canadian Caper” is told by the man who knows it best: Ken Taylor, Canada’s former ambassador to Iran, who hid the six Americans in his official residence and obtained the counterfeit documents that allowed them to make their dramatic escape from Tehran. Based on Robert Wright’s book, the film uncovers new information and adds valuable context, including an historical overview of Iran, interviews with the rescued Americans, former Prime Minister Joe Clark, ex-CIA officer Tony Mendez, and many others. Winner of Best Documentary at the **Canadian Screen Awards**. "*An intelligent, complex and tension-filled story that breathes life into historical events [and] adds rich detail to the events from the people who were there.*" - ***The Toronto Star***
