The Dissident

Journalist Jamal Khashoggi walks into the Saudi Arabian consulate in Istanbul for paperwork to marry his fiancée. The doors close behind him. The world that followed his courageous criticism of power holds its breath. The investigation into his disappearance becomes a digital detective story, where clues are data from an Apple Watch, surveillance footage, and the tireless efforts of his fiancée Hatice and activists. The film meticulously assembles the puzzle, exposing not just the mechanism of a single murder, but a global network of digital suppression and propaganda, where technology serves tyranny.
