THE 2018 murder of Saudi dissident and journalist Jamal Khashoggi at his country’s consulate in Istanbul gave the world a glimpse of the supernaturally evil side of international politics. It’s not that we didn’t know this side existed: We’ve seen wars, we’ve seen revelations of torture, we’ve seen deranged, narcissistic sociopaths reach the highest levels of government all across the world. But there was something uniquely unspeakable about the idea of a man calmly walking into his government’s office in another country, shaking hands, and then promptly being strangled, dismembered, and disposed of—it was as if a wormhole had opened up into another, more medieval dimension.
THE DISSIDENT DIRECTED BY BRYAN FOGEL. BRIARCLIFF ENTERTAINMENT. PG-13.
