Was enjoying this documentary until I noticed that they had edited someone's testimony out of order to make them look bad. (the time on screen gives it away) Very bad form, especially in a documentary exposing injustice.

Without knowing the background to this documentary, it was gripping till the end. Worth watching.

Amazing story
