Ghosts of Abu Ghraib plot
"Facing The Darkness Within"
In this documentary, Rory Kennedy explores the psychological and political context of the torture practices of American soldiers in the Iraqi prison of Abu Ghraib in 2003. How could ordinary young soldiers carry out these actions? What orders did they receive from above? How much damage has the aftermath of the Abu Ghraib events inflicted on the US image as a global champion of freedom and human rights? On the basis of interviews with ex-prisoners, soldiers and military police officers, Rory Kennedy tries to find an answer to these questions, among other things.
