Uyghurs: Prisoners of the Absurd (2014)
10 Oct 2014 • Documentary • 1h 39m
The incredible odyssey of a group of men from China's persecuted Uyghur minority, detained in Guantánamo as terrorists. Exposing the cold logic of post-September 11 geopolitical gamemasters who flout international law as they shift their pawns, this documentary is part human drama, part political thriller, and both thoughtprovoking and moving.
