Not bad but failed to transmit a message of suffering

I read about how this man was tortured in Guantanamo and none of this horror was transmitted in the movie. It was not clear what he had gone to Pakistan to do. Apparently he had just turned 19 yo and wanted to study there but was turned down so spent 2 months as a pilgrim going from mosque to mosque. Why not alternate between footages of his family struggle and what was happening to him so the viewer could get a clear view that he was innocent and hence sympathize more? Futhermore, the mother is depicted as lively and humurous. I failed to see the in the character a suffering mother and the father seemed not to care at all.In the end, she just stood up the lawyer who had been working for them for free for almost 5 years. Also didn't help the viewer sympathize with the main character.Overall the story is good and it had potential to be a movie about human rights, but I think it failed to achieve all that potential and why this case was important.
