Summary In January 2002 David Hicks was picked up in Afghanistan by the Northern Alliance and handed over to the US military. He was taken to the American Naval Base in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, for interrogation and has been held there in a small cage ever since. President Bush has labelled him an "unlawful combatant". This means that he is allowed none of the rights of ordinary prisoners-of-war. No charges have been laid against him and only recently has he been given access to a lawyer. This program follows the journey made by Terry Hicks, David's father, as he traces his son's footsteps in an attempt to understand what has happened to him
