"Drugs and Death in Bagram," a new documentary film about a father's quest for the
truth about his soldier son's death in Afghanistan, will premier in the United
States in Chicago on May 27 with a second showing scheduled for
May 29.  The screenings are free and open to the public.

The film documents six years of tireless struggle by Chicago immigrant Juan Torres
as he seeks to learn the truth about his son's death in Afghanistan in 2004. Juan
dared to challenge to United States military to uncover the truth about the
mysterious death of his only son, John, and in the process uncovered an extensive
military cover-up and a preventable death.

The Torres case also serves as a cautionary tale for young people who are
considering enlisting for the United States' "good war" in Afghanistan. The fallout
for families can be devastating. "My American Dream is over," said Juan Torres,
after discovering the truth behind the death of his son.
