Storyline: In 1979, the
American embassy in Iran was invaded by Iranian revolutionaries and
several Americans were taken hostage. However, six managed to escape to
the official residence of the Canadian Ambassador and the CIA was
eventually ordered to get them out of the country. With few options,
exfiltration expert Tony Mendez devised a daring plan: to create a
phony Canadian film project looking to shoot in Iran and smuggle the
Americans out as its production crew. With the help of some trusted
Hollywood contacts, Mendez created the ruse and proceed to Iran as its
associate producer. However, time was running out with the Iranian
security forces closing in on the truth while both his charges and the
White House had grave doubts about the operation themselves.
