1984 - 1991, seven years: that was how long journalist Terry Anderson was held hostage by the Hizbollah in Beirut. Of all the hostages in this incredible Lebanese imbroglio, he endured the longest incarceration. The film retraces the incredible events and the main players in this protracted drama, President Reagan and his entourage, the Iranian Ayatollahs, President Mitterrand, the United Nations leaders. Accounts by the main protagonists (Colonel North and the Deputy Secretary General of the United Nations) lift the veil from the unseen side of the affair. Most fascinatingly, we follow several of these hostages as they relive this "confinement" that lasted years. These "memories" are a living document, the most distressing ever seen.
