Phantom Parrot review â eye-opening documentary about Orwellian surveillance in the UK | Documentary films![]() British human rights activist Muhammad Rabbani had been stopped and interrogated at the UK border on several previous instances â the consequence, he says wryly, of being a Muslim man with a beard. But this time was different: the interviewer asked for the password to his electronic devices, and when Rabbani refused â his clients are vulnerable, their information highly sensitive â he was arrested and charged. Kate Stonehillâs eye-opening and at times slightly muddled documentary uses Rabbaniâs case as a jumping-off point to explore the Orwellian surveillance activities of the UK; the potential for abuse of Schedule 7 of the 2000 Terrorism Bill and the terrifying amounts of data about each one of us that can be mined from our mobile phones.
