The small island nation of Sri Lanka has one of the highest numbers of unsolved disappearances in the world. Will a new investigation agency help victims of abduction and their families get justice?
Kumaran Pathmanathan, or 'KP', is the Tamil Tigers' current leader. Two months ago, he was snatched from a hotel in Malaysia and whisked back to Colombo. It seems Sri Lanka's government was behind the abduction.
After years of bitter fighting, the Tamil Tigers are finally surrounded and the army is moving in for the kill. But what will happen to the 200,000 Tamil civilians still trapped between the warring sides?
This collection of footage presents a nation battling decades of civil war and seeing thousands of political arrests. Years of bloodshed in Sri Lanka places today's violence in its proper context.
It has been nearly one year since the Sri Lankan government defeated the Tamil Tigers, ending a twenty-seven year civil war. Allegations of war crimes on both sides still divide this country haunted by war.
If they stay they face intimidation and violence. If they go they run the gauntlet of naval controls and treacherous seas. Yet the Tamils of Sri Lanka are taking the high water over the hell at home.
We get a glimpse at one of the Tamil Tigers' most effective weapons - the camera teams shooting the Tigers' propaganda videos.
After 26 long years of bloodshed, the Sri Lankan government has finally defeated the Tamil Tigers. But did the destruction of a treasured Tamil library 30 years ago help spark Sri Lanka's civil war?
