Tehran plot

Tamar Rabinyan is a hacker with the Mossad. She carries out her very first mission in the heart of a hostile and menacing city, which also happens to be her hometown. Its mission, tasked with shutting down an Iranian nuclear reactor, has implications not only for the Middle East, but for the entire world order. When the Mossad mission fails, Tamar deserts in Tehran while rediscovering her Iranian roots and making love with a pro-democracy activist. When the Iranian authorities embark on a desperate search to find her and her Mossad colleagues, tension mounts.

A young Israeli agent of the Mossad (excellently played by Niv Sultan), is ordered to sabotage Iran's air defenses through a hack. It is the beginning of a cat and mouse game with the Iranian secret service, personified by the hard and driven Faraz Kamali (Shaun Toub). Tehran is a beautifully stylized spy drama that, however, lacks tension. Loyalty conflicts, a bit of romance, such a spy office garden with lots of screens, a few hacks that just (don't) work; we can tick it off neatly. The series was shot in Athens, with the necessary CGI to make it look like Tehran. I believe it.

The screenplay by Moshe Zonder (Fauda) sometimes drops a bit (episodes 4 and 5), but on the other hand it does have a few nice surprises and cliffhangers. Tehran lacks the action, suspense, weight and authority of series like Fauda, Homeland or The Spy, but it manages to survive because it's carefully crafted.
