A group within the FBI are tasking in investigating the US government policies and action after 9/11, particularly looking at policies on detention and torture. It takes months, perhaps even years, but uncovers truths that many in government don’t want revealed.
Based on the truth, it’s a mostly quite dry movie, but it’s always fascinating to look at cover ups and the like – even being very aware that it’s hard to know just how much is fact and how much is guesswork or artistic licence.
