Young Mohammed El-Gharani is in the wrong place at the wrong time when he’s detained and sold to the American government. The 14-year-old was in Pakistan trying to go to school, which he didn’t have access to as a Chadian in Saudi Arabia. He then spends seven years captive in Guantánamo Bay, interrogated and tortured by American agents who refuse to accept his innocence and insist he’s a member of Al-Qaida, which he’s never even heard of. Guantánamo Kid tells the story of one of the youngest detainees, what he endured, and how he riled up others to cause change at the camp.
