Today they may be sworn enemies, but in the 60s and 70s thousands of Israelis lived in Iran. Protected by arms deals and complex financial ties, the Israelis enjoyed a luxurious lifestyle, wilfully blind to the corruption they supported. But in '79 the expat's "Persian paradise" was shattered by the Islamist revolution. This fascinating doc exposes the dark reality of a forgotten slice of history.
