Written and directed by Taghi Amirani, and ten years in the making, "Coup 53" tells the story of the 1953 Anglo-American coup d'etat that overthrew Iran's government of Prime Minister Mohammad Mossadegh and reinstalled the Shah. The CIA/Ml6 covert action was called "Operation Ajax" and was all about Iran's oil and who should control and benefit from it.
