Standard Operating Procedure Plot and Cast
Errol Morris examines the Abu Ghraib scandal through interviews with American guards and Iraqi prisoners who were at the military jail before images of prisoner torture surfaced in 2004. One female guard, who posed alongside fallen Iraqis in notorious images, tells Morris that her crimes were inspired by her love for another soldier, and another explains why she took photographs of her fellow troops. Morris ultimately suggests the scandal stemmed from systemic flaws in the military.
