Documentary-drama. On November 4, 1979, Iranian militants stormed the United States Embassy in Tehran and took sixty-six Americans captive. Thus began the Iran hostage crisis, an affair that captivated the American public for 444 days and marked America's first confrontation with the forces of radical Islam. The Surviving disaster series has spectacular CGI, authentic reconstructions, and a distinctive filmic style. Each episode considers whether the disaster in question could have been prevented, and looks at the lessons to be learnt in order to avoid future large-scale catastrophes.
