The case of Julian Assange is about global press freedom. But it's also about a human being who has been persecuted and the impact of that ordeal on his family, friends, and loved ones.
This human side of the Assange case is very rarely seen, because most portrayals of Assange leave him devoid of any humanity.
Assange is incarcerated in Belmarsh during this film and we only see him in phone calls to loved one and old footage. Yet, although the focus is on the struggle of his wife and father to free him, this film restores much of that humanity to Assange.
