To overcome the difficulty for people to empathize with people whose suffering is deliberately kept hidden, the new animated film, "Guantánamo Bay: The Hunger Strikes," produced by Mustafa Khalili and Guy Grandjean of the Guardian, and the animation company Sherbet, features the testimony of four prisoners, all of whom have been cleared for release but are still held (a situation in which 84 of the remaining 164 prisoners find themselves). The film, which depicts life in the prison, including the horrible reality of force-feeding, is narrated by the actors David Morrisey and Peter Capaldi.
