Psy-Warriors

Synopsis

In a stark, sterile military facility, where the boundaries of morality and obedience blur, the psychological torment of war is laid bare.

Initially written for the stage and later adapted for television, the play focuses on three soldiers who are captured and subjected to brutal interrogation techniques. As the story unfolds, it becomes clear that these supposed “terrorists” are actually soldiers undergoing a sadistic training exercise designed to prepare them for the psychological warfare they might face in real combat.

The play is an unflinching examination of the moral dilemmas surrounding torture and the dehumanising effects of such training. The interrogators use a variety of psychological techniques to break down their prisoners, revealing not only the vulnerabilities of the captives but also the moral degradation of the interrogators themselves.
