Why Democracy? Part 6: Taxi to the Dark Side (2007x42)


:

Documentary. Oscar-nominated director Alex Gibney investigates the story of Dilawar, a young Afghan taxi driver arrested and questioned by the US forces at Bagram airbase, who died just days after his arrest. Gibney looks at the methods employed by Dilawar's interrogators and traces the chain of command which authorised the techniques, ending up at the White House itself. He then explores how these interrogation methods migrated from Bagram to places like Guantanamo and Abu Ghraib.
