There are in the United States two governments: one is visible, represented by the President who looks principally after domestic policy; the other is invisible, confidential.
Behind such enigmatic acronyms as the NSA, CIA or NSC., it has run US foreign policy for the last fifty years.

Based on our 3--part documentary SECRETS OF STATE, this behind-the-scene series uncovers the secret history of American diplomacy – from the Bay of Pigs to Vietnam or the Gulf War – through talks with the most influential men behind the presidents. Whether they occupied the posts of Secretary of Sate, Director of the NSC or the CIA, this is an account in their own words of their actions, their points of view. A fascinating insight into US foreign policy.
