Nationalist to be convicted in ‘The Enigma of the Shah’

Tonight at 22:00 GMT, viewers will tune into iFilm's historical series, ‘The Enigma of the Shah’, to witness the unfair court hearing of Dr. Mohammad Mossadeq, a renowned advocate of Iranian nationalism.

At the trial, Dr. Mossadeq is met with false accusations and is forced to fight back with evidence of British control of Iran's oil industry.

His powerful words and laughter that follow the judge’s verdict speak volumes of the injustice he’s faced. His speech serves as a reminder of the importance of nationalism in the face of oppression.

But how can he stay this firm and solid in his idea? What is his vision based on? 

Don't miss the 38th episode of the series on iFilm TV tonight to know more about this national hero of Iran. You can also watch it now via the channel's website at en.ifilmtv.ir

Directed by Mohammad-Reza Varzi, ‘The Enigma of the Shah’ recounts Iran’s contemporary history, beginning with the rule of Reza Shah Pahlavi and ending with the Islamic Revolution of Iran which brought down the Pahlavi Dynasty.
