Synopsis
This special episode of the hit series Banged Up Abroad will tell the story behind the Oscar-winning movie Argo. Retired CIA officer and master of disguise, Antonio Mendez portrayed in the movie by Ben Affleck will tell the story of how, at the height of the Iranian hostage crisis he came up with an audacious plan to rescue six diplomats who had escaped the U.S. Embassy in Tehran. Desperate for a cover story that would allow him to swoop into Iran and smuggle the diplomats out through the airport, Mendez hit upon a wild idea - pose as a Hollywood film crew. It sounded crazy, but as the only viable plan Mendez has little choice but to carry out one of the riskiest mission of his career.
