Featuring Alistair Crooke, Pepe Escobar, Dr. Mohammad Larajani, Professor Seyed Marandi, Jeffrey Sachs and Oliver Stone …. Director Igor Lopatonok…uses the January 2020 downing of Flight PS752 as a harrowing lens through which to examine over a century of foreign intervention, regime change and war in Iran. From the shadows of the 1953 CIA/MI6 orchestrated coup that toppled Iran’s democratic government and reinstalled the Shah – to the 1979 revolution that finally overthrew the US-backed monarch, the film unearths history that mainstream narratives have long obscured.
