Under the Hood, A Voyage into the World of Torture
a film by Patricio Henríquez

The war against terror is being used today by democratic countries to justify torturing victims with full impunity. By using a historical framework to look at torture, and at America’s shameful history of complicity with the perpetrators, the documentary Under the Hood, A Voyage into the World of Torture shows the true face of suffering and sounds a warning about a barbarity that is becoming institutionalized.
