Dean John D. Hutson appears in Academy Award-winning documentary "Taxi to the Dark Side"

An interview with Franklin Pierce Law Center Dean John D. Hutson regarding torture and interrogation techniques is featured in this year's Academy Award-winning documentary "Taxi to the Dark Side." The film's creators received the honor at the 80th Academy Awards presentation held on Sunday.

The film tells the story of a young taxi driver who was arrested in 2002 by the American military while carrying passengers in a deserted area of Afghanistan. He was taken to Bagram Air Base and found dead five days later. The mystery surrounding Dilawar's death by beating provided the basis for the documentary made by Australian producer Eva Orner and writer-director Alex Gibney, a journalist turned filmmaker.

"Taxi to the Dark Side" will be shown in Concord on March 4 at 8 PM, and again on March 5 at 7 PM at the Red River Theatres, 11 South Main St.
