Summary |
Robert Baer, a former CIA man, was working in Beirut in 1983 when a car bomb explosion at the American Embassy killed 63 people, including many of his colleagues. In his documentary, Baer, whom George Clooney's character in Syriana was based on, looks at the history of the car bomb. He reveals how the century of the car turned into the century of the car bomb; and how a dream of freedom turned into a nightmare.
