Al Qarem (2006)

The film itself focuses on an Afghani family living in Queens, before and after the historical catastrophe. Federal agents abduct a friend of this family investigating money transfers to an uncle in Afghanistan during the reign of the Taliban. The son makes it his mission in life to release him. This situation is intensified by having to watch out for hate crimes carried out by angry commoners as a false sense of retaliatory attack for 9/11. What makes this setting all the more wild is that events depicted have been interpolated from a true story. The motion picture thus analyzes the effectiveness of profiling when it comes to terrorism, the validity of the "enemy combatant" claim when denying right to trial, and other pressing moral issues that will continue to be debated long after the now global conflict subsides.
