If the United States could rid the world of terrorism forever, would you give up your rights as an American citizen for a day? A year? Forever? These are the questions put to the test in HBO's all-new psychological movie, which explores the precarious status of individual liberties post-9/11 through two parallel stories -- each containing identical dialogue -- taking place on two continents half a world away. Acclaimed director, Sidney Lumet, weaves together the cautionary tales of two young students -- an American female in China and an Arab male in New York who are detained by authorities, without any hard evidence of committing any crime, and interrogated about their thoughts and beliefs.
