Complicit + Q&A at BFI Southbank

A taut psychological thriller from acclaimed writer Guy Hibbert (Five Minutes of Heaven; Omagh; No Child of Mine). Edward (Oyelowo) is an MI5 officer convinced that home-grown terror suspect Waleed (Ali) is plotting an atrocity on British soil. His investigations lead him to Egypt, where he finds himself entering into an uncomfortable alliance with the local security services who are prepared to secure the proof he needs by whatever means necessary. A penetrating insight into the dangerous world of counter- terrorism, Complicit explores the moral compromises surrounding the use of torture in fighting the ‘War on Terror’.
