The film that many PBS stations were afraid to carry is a sweeping exposé of the Bush-Cheney administration’s torture policies. The film is a result of a collaborative effort by the National Security Archive (which has collected over 1,500 documents on counter-terrorism policy and filed hundreds of Freedom of Information Act requests) and Washington Media (which has been conducting investigative research since the Abu Ghraib scandal) to preserve an institutional memory of how torture became an accepted weapon in the United States arsenal. 90 minutes. Community Partners: American Friends Service Committee in Vermont, American Civil Liberties Union of Vermont. Post-film event: Joseph Gainza of the AFSC will discuss the film at the Monday, March 23, show; Allen Gilbert of the ACLU will discuss the film after the Friday, March 27, show. Review
- Monday, March 23 12:00 pm
