The Dictator Hunter [US Premiere] Series: Human Rights Watch International Film Festival 2008 [June 13 - 26] Director: Klaartje Quirijns, Country: Netherlands, Release: 2007, Runtime: 75 “If you kill one person, you go to jail. If you kill 40 people, they put you in an insane asylum. But if you kill 40,000 people, you get a comfortable exile with a bank account in another country, and that’s what we want to change here.” —Reed Brody, Counsel, Human Rights Watch Souleymane Guengueng, a former civil servant, watched hundreds of his cellmates perish from torture and disease during two years in prison under Chadian dictator Hissène Habré. When Habré fell from power in 1990, Guengueng’s quest for justice began. For the past eight years, he has been joined by Reed Brody—Human Rights Watch’s “dictator hunter” after his work on the case of Chile’s former tyrant Augusto Pinochet. Habré now lives in Senegal, where Brody and Guengueng are attempting to have him brought to trial or extradited. The Dictator Hunter follows Brody and Guengueng over the course of two suspenseful and critical years, showing what committed individuals can accomplish when working relentlessly to break the cycle of impunity. Presented in association with African Film Festival, Inc., www.africanfilmny.org.
