Synopsis

In August 1990 Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait, triggering a war that would reshape the geopolitical landscape of the Middle East. This documentary charts the extraordinary story of the passengers and crew on BA flight 149 who landed in the warzone on the morning of the invasion, becoming Saddam’s hostages in a rapidly escalating international crisis. For decades the British government denied they knew the invasion had begun before the plane landed. Then in 2023, an MI6 officer broke his silence contradicting this official account. The hostages are now launching a legal case against the British Government and British Airways in their search for the truth about why the plane landed in the first place.
