“Who are you? What’s your name? How old are you? Where do you come from? Are you a journalist? Do you love me? Are you Dutch? Portuguese? Do you even know where that is, Portugal? What they speak there? What do you speak, actually? Can you even speak? Why are you here? What were you doing in Pakistan? If you cooperate with us you’ll be able to sleep in peace.” Five interrogators with kitschy costumes want to hear the truth they say they already know – they just want to hear the words from prisoner’s mouth.
