The End of Truth?

This documentary traces how the abductions of journalists John Cantlie and James Foley triggered a wave of hostage-taking that reshaped foreign policy. With media blackouts surrounding the kidnappings, others unknowingly walked into danger, and the true scale of the crisis stayed hidden. The film examines the impossible choices facing governments, families and the press. Tense and thought-provoking, it explores what happens when truth itself becomes a casualty.
