Carrying the subtitle "The Making of A Torturer," this is a drama-documentary based on statements from former Greek EAT/ESA (1972-73) policemen and their torture victims, mixed with fictional reconstructions of the training of EAT/ESA conscripts. The film lays bare a system that makes terror acceptable and which turns human beings, unbeknownst to themselves, into torturer/terrorist robots.
