Overview

To be an attorney defending persons accused in 9/11 trials at Guantanamo Bay is thankless. To make a film about “justice” inside “Camp Justice” at Guantanamo, where the Constitution does not apply and filming is not allowed, demands ingenuity. Director Johanna Hamilton celebrates the valor of lawyers operating within a system rigged against them and exposes the pointless cruelty in the prosecution of a case against alleged 9/11 terrorists that is still in the pretrial phase, 18 years after the crime took place.
