Operation Yellow Bird

This documentary runs for 63 minutes and provides an in-depth look at the Tiananmen Square protests and the subsequent disappearances of dissidents. It challenges the widely held belief that the CIA was behind their exfiltration, revealing instead the crucial role played by a French diplomat.

The film explores how the operation unfolded and the complexities of international diplomacy during a tense political climate. By focusing on personal stories and key figures involved, it sheds light on the human side of historical events often overshadowed by larger narratives. This makes it a significant addition to the documentary genre, especially for those interested in political history and international relations.
