Shot Down Over The Soviet Union

Shot Down Over The Soviet Union

Was the US trying to trigger World War III in the 1950s? This is one of the startling hypotheses presented in this documentary on the CIA's spy plane U2 and its ultra-secret missions over the Warsaw Pact nations. Dirk Pohlmann sketches a gripping portrait of the dramatic events that sent the thawing relationship between America and the Soviet Union back into the freezer.
