Summary |
"This film tells the story of a Baghdad journalist and his experience of having been wrongly targeted as a bomb-maker with a plot to murder Tony Blair. American troops acting on intelligence arrest him and his brothers, brutally interrogate them and send them to Abu Ghraib, where conditions are so dreadful that there is a riot in which a number of prisoners die. Despite no evidence of a plot and no traces of bomb-making material the brothers are detained for nine months. This is the story of one ordinary man caught up in the nightmare of a chaotic war against an elusive enemy. (From the US, in English) CC WS -- website |
