Rendition (2007)

Rendition

Douglas was a CIA analyst, who happened to be passing by when a suicide attack killed not only his colleague, but many locals. he was forced to take over his colleague's job and met with Abasi, a high ranked police official, who interrogate with techniques of torture. Anwar was a chemical engineer who lived in Chicago with his pregnant wife Isabella. on his way returning to the states, he was detained by Abasi, linking him to the suicide attack happened earlier.

watching the film gave us some frightful insights that explained many occurring that took place around the world. having seen films and books that thoroughly explained the torturing techniques used on suspected individuals, imagining it happened in real life was a terrifying concept. the film surprised us by implying such a powerful and sensitive issue and putting it on the big screen. it was absolutely engaging, even emitted a heavy atmosphere that put some thoughts in our head.
