Behind The Shroud

Documentary Film (90 minutes) – Behind The Shroud is a documentary feature film that examines the Ahmed Zaoui case. It analyses why after years of the New Zealand Government stating Mr Zaoui to be a risk to the nation’s security, the Inspector General of Intelligence and Security, Justice Paul Neazor, found in Zaoui’s favour and set him free.

This documentary unearths: information that has been cloaked in secrecy. It takes the viewer on a journey into that shadowy world of spies and espionage, and resolves the mystery of the Zaoui case through interviews with key players in the great game, including two secret witnesses (including Lieutenant Colonel Mohamed Samraoui – Algeria’s former head of intelligence and counter-espionage for north Europe) who each testified at the Inspector General’s hearings in Auckland, New Zealand.

It is scheduled to have its first public screening in Auckland in March at AUT University’s new 380-seat HD theatre.
