The Prisoner Or: How I Planned To Kill Tony Blair

Report

Petra Epperlain and Michael Tucker's documentary uses humor to explore the heartbreaking story of an innocent man's imprisonment. Yunis is an Iraqi journalist living happily with his family in Baghdad. Yunis is accused of devising a plan to assassinate Tony Blair shortly after American troops arrive in Iraq in 2003. With no idea how or why he's been targeted, Yunis struggles to escape a system which is revealed here to be full of bizarre inconsistencies, cruelty, and wrongdoing. In an attempt to highlight the ridiculous nature of its central events, this documentary incorporates original pop-art style illustrations, home videos, and testimonies from former Abu Ghraib Prison guard Benjamin Thompson.
