About this listen

"Hostages" takes you into the heart of the most striking hostage situations in contemporary history.

From Munich ’72 to Tehran ’79, via the Stockholm syndrome, each episode revisits those suspended moments when the entire world held its breath.

Who are the captors? What do the hostages endure? What is really happening behind the scenes? Investigation, tension, immersion. True stories, real voices, hard facts — where drama meets history and geopolitics.

Through a tense and thoroughly researched narrative, "Hostages" deciphers the psychological mechanisms, the political stakes, the secret negotiations, the human errors… and the geopolitical consequences of these events that have shaped our times.

An original Audio 360 production. Directed by John Mac. https://www.audio360.fr – contact@audio360.fr
