This is the horrifying story about one of the deceased, Yasser Al-Zahrani from Saudi Arabia. He was only 17 years old when he came to Guantanamo in 2002. His father has filed a case against Donald Rumsfeld. The father states: They tortured him. Then they killed him and returned him to me in a box, cut up.”
The Norwegian filmmaker, Erling Borgen, has been to seven countries and worked for three years with this documentary. He interviews released Guantanamoprisoners, lawyers representing the Guantanamo prisoners – and describes a fathers struggle to find out the truth about what happened with his son.
The film features former Guantanamo prisoners Omar Deghayes, Moazzam Begg, Al-Jazeera's Sami al-Hajj, survivor of the brutal massacre at Qala-i-Jangi Walid al-Hajj and Colonel Talal al-Zahrani, father of Yasser.
The screening will be attended by former Guantanamo prisoners, their relatives and legal representatives.
