EXTRAORDINARY RENDITION
A film by Jim Threapleton, England, 2007, 77 min.

A man is hijacked on the streets of London and secretly flown to an unknown place. He is placed in solitary confinement, interrogated and tortured, living a lawless nightmare. Months later he is back to London, having received no explanations about what occurred. He attempts to bring together the pieces of a world he no longer recognizes.
