Synopsis:

A crossroad country, a nation divided, Iran is on the rise after a century of political upheaval. The nuclear crisis has revealed to the world its goal: to become a world power. The roots of this bold challenge issued to the West sink deep into a past rife with revolutions, coups de force and intrigues elaborated in foreign capitals. The telling of this story, with light shed on it from the point of view of Iranians who were its key players, provides the keys to present-day Iran's goal of international influence. For the first time ever, this film will look back over 100 years of Iranian history to the veritable wellsprings of the confrontation between Iran and the western powers. Their incessant rivalry for control of the country's wealth has exacerbated a patriotism that allied itself with the ayatollahs from the early 20th century. From the discovery of oil to the present day, Iran has been on a painful quest for identity and independence.
