Description
Acclaimed filmmaker Rory Kennedy takes a disturbing look at the abuses that occurred at the Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq. Using the personal narratives of perpetrators, witnesses and victims, the film probes the effects of the abuses at the facility that earned infamy in the fall of 2003 when the shocking photos--including detainees posed in simulated sex acts--were leaked to the press. The result is a sobering look at how extreme factors can give rise to abusive behavior, as well as how the chain of command and even U.S. policy may have contributed to these events.
