- Synopsis
- A riveting first person exploration by journalist Theo Padnos who recounts his nearly two-year brutal imprisonment in Syria by the Al Quaeda affiliate, the Nusra Front, after being kidnapped. This film is his journey to show the tale of the daily beatings, isolation, and other cruel deprivations he survived and share his insights about his captors, Islam, the political forces at sway both in Syria and abroad and even his own culpability.
