Writer and director Peter Sattler makes his feature debut with this powerful drama about notorious and controversial prison. A soldier assigned to Guantanamo Bay finds herself conflicted when she befriends a prisoner. Sattler makes a compelling case against Gitmo and gives a fictional glimpse into the controversial military prison where apparently guilty and innocent suspects are held indefinitely without any rights or trial. Kristen Stewart stars with a terrific performance along with equally terrific Peyman Moaadi (A Separation) which raises some troubling questions about the US war on terror. 1001 Films' coverage of current releases.
