![]() The most interesting part, however, seemed to me the confrontation between the two worlds that are political and military enemies, and between the two cultures that have many points in which they differ, but also enough that unite them. The espionage and action plot itself is quite interesting and well-constructed, including enough upheavals, pursuits, shootings, corpses, double agents and failed missions. Another 'tick-box' of the genre can be checked. Among them there is Milad (Shervin Alenabi), a local hacker, with whom a romantic story will unfold. Her life is permanently in danger, as the infiltration, ingenious in her way has not gone unnoticed, but Tamar decides to continue her mission with the help of some of the regime's opponents. What is more important in this series is the situation in which Tamar, alone but enjoying the support of local collaborators and permanent communications with her home bosses, faces the Iran she had left as a child, and the realities of the Islamic Republic, a police state in which women have a different status from the egalitarianism in which she was raised. I will leave aside the aspects related to the technical veracity of what we see on the screen, after all it is a fiction film, and as spectators we accept the rules of the genre. We are in the 21st century and it is almost natural that the main heroine of the series is not a super spy but a young Israeli woman born in Iran, named Tamar Rabinian (Niv Sultan), computer expert or in other words hacker, sent on a dangerous cyber sabotage mission in order to paralyze the Iranian anti-aircraft systems. However, the best moments of the eight episodes series of the first season are not necessarily those that relate to action. ![]() It's a perfect material for a techno-thriller, and the Israeli series complies with most of the rules of spy movies and will please many fans of the genre. Israeli series have not shied away from subjects related to the conflicts in the Middle East, and 'Fauda' is the best (but not the only) example that the 'local' problems of this turbulent area are of interest to the international public and are doing quite well in what concerns the rating when they are well written and done.'Tehran', which is produced by the public television channel, is boldly addressing the conflict that has become central to the Middle East's balance of power in recent years, between the Islamic Republic of Iran engaged in reaching atomic capabilities and Israel which considers this an existential threat which it seeks to prevent by all the means at its disposal, including the Mossad's secret actions and cyber activities. 'Tehran' is one of the most ambitious productions of Israeli television in recent years.
