August at GFT Documentary
The Confession (CTBC)
A gripping documentary examining the rise of modern jihad
Tuesday 16 – Thursday 18 August
Running time: 1h30m
From the rise of the Bosnian Mujahideen to the torture cells of Guantanamo Bay, and from rebel training camps in Syria to the prison-bars of Belmarsh, Moazzam Begg has lived through a generation of conflict. The Confession captures the entirety of Begg’s story from his forced confession and testimony as a free man, to his experience as a British Muslim and the impact of the War on Terror. Ashish Ghadiali’s gripping documentary charts the rise of modern jihad, its descent into terror, and the disastrous reaction of the West.
The screening on Monday 8 Aug (20.20) will be followed by a Q&A with director Ashish Ghadiali and Moazzam Begg.
Director Ashish Ghadiali, UK 2016, 1h30m, CTBC
