In August 1984, Michigan housewife Betty Mahmoody accompanied her husband to his native Iran for a 2 week vacation. To her horror, she found herself and her 4 year old daughter, Mahtob, virtual prisoners of a man rededicated to his Shiite Moselm faith, in a lnad where women were near-slaves and Americans were despised. Their only hope for escape lay in a dangerous underground that would not take her child.
This true story was made into a movie starring Sally Field as Betty.
