Laura Poitras has been a fearless documentarian for over 25 years. Her work blurs the lines between journalism, activism, and art, as she explores the impact of government policies by looking at their effect on the lives of individuals.
In this episode from 2010, Tania and Laura discuss the making of The Oath, a film about a Yemeni taxi driver named Abu Jandal, who was also Bin Laden’s former bodyguard; her brave defiance of the politically correct; and what it’s like to be a western woman working in a Muslim country.
