The Mauritanian

Based on the NY Times best-selling memoir "GuantA¡namo Diary" by Mohamedou Ould Slahi, this is the true story of Slahi's fight for freedom after being detained and imprisoned without charge by the U.S. Government for years. Alone and afraid, Slahi finds allies in defense attorney Nancy Hollander and her associate Teri Duncan who battle the U.S. government in a fight for justice that tests their commitment to the law and their client at every turn. Their controversial advocacy, along with evidence uncovered by a formidable military prosecutor, Lt. Colonel Stuart Couch, uncovers shocking truths and ultimately proves that the human spirit cannot be locked up. ??STXfilmsAwards: 3 wins & 17 nominations totalWorldwide Gross: $7,527,030Soundtrack: Makam Vaghou (Written and Performed by Noura Mint Seymali)Kevin MacdonaldTahar Rahim, Nouhe Hamady Bari, Saadna Hamoud2021-03-02 (United Kingdom, United States)tt4761112
