About Syriana
Syriana
is a geographical term referring to Middle Eastern hot spots in the campaign
against terrorism. This volatile setting provides the backdrop for this true
story of CIA foot soldier Robert Baer (George Clooney) who spent 20 years in the
trenches of the US war on terror. Based on the agent's own memoir "See No
Evil," the film chronicles Baer's career spent investigating terrorists
around the world. He watched as the CIA's funding was cut while the dangers of
terrorism increased, politics overrode good judgement, and multiple warning
signs were ignored. It all becomes personal when a civilian oil executive (Matt
Damon) and his family are faced with tragedy.
