Taxi To The Dark Side (2007)
This film uses the story of an Afghani taxi driver who was detained wrongfully and killed while in prison to look at issues of torture and interrogation in the present war on terror. It holds very little back in both discussion content and imagery, making it horrifying, disturbing, and morbidly interesting. It's clear which side of the argument the filmmakers are on, but that opinion is not overpowering.
My Netflix rating: 4 stars
