This documentary follows the story of Eric Olson, who was convinced that that his father, former CIA scientist Dr. Frank Olson, who was an expert for anthrax and other biological weapons and had top security clearance, was murdered by agents of the American government because he wanted to leave the CIA.

More than 40 years after his death, his body was exhumed and Forensic pathologists at George Washington University performed an autopsy, concluding that Olson probably was the victim of a violent crime.

Eric was nine years old when his father was murdered in November of 1953. Even though eight years have passed since his father’s body was exhumed, he is still left searching for answers.
