Ivan Kolev claws an opening under a barbed wire fence in a driving
rain and escapes from Communist Bulgaria to Greece, and into a
Greek Army ambush.
Kolev's freedom is short-lived. After weeks of interrogation,
the CIA recruits him to return to Bulgaria clandestinely on an
espionage mission.
He trains physically for months in the rugged mountains of
northern Greece shepherded by a tough Greek, a former guerilla
fighter. Then, when proficient in the use of a pistol, map, compass
and camera, he is dispatched by the CIA to Bulgaria.
Enter the world of Cold War espionage as Kolev voluntarily
surrenders to the Bulgarian Intelligence Service and agrees to
become a double agent, a decision that exposes him to violence and
the risk of death, and one that changes his life forever.
"The Mission" also portrays the rarely told story of the reality
of life in the CIA's clandestine service; the dangers its
operations officers face and the impact on their personal
lives.
