Oscar-winning director Alex Gibney investigates the torture and killing of an innocent Afghani taxi driver in this gripping probe into reckless abuses of government power.
A disturbing, incisive and compelling documentary thriller, the Academy Award-winning Taxi To The Dark Side incorporates rare and never-before-seen images from inside Bagram Air Force Base in Afghanistan and the Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo Bay prisons into its exposure of the Bush administration's "global war on terror."
This stunningly crafted narrative demonstrates how this one man's life and death symbolize the erosion of all of our civil rights and how what it means to be a U.S. citizen has changed forever.
