greenwald. it tells the story of civilians who have lost their lives to drones and includes the testimony of others. among them, brandon bryant, a former american drone operator who carried out attacks by remote control from a military base in new mexico. >> getting into the drone program was weird. the introduction is like, "this is what we do, we kill people and break things. that is what our job is." and depending on atmospherics, if it was a completely clear day, you'd definitely get a good picture. and depending on how close you were you could probably read the license plate on someone's car. we can see something as simple as people playing a soccer game. we can see individual players, and we can even see the ball. >> one of those featured in the film is tariq aziz, 16-years-old. he lived in the mountainous region of northern pakistan, and he loved to play soccer. in april 2010, his 18-year-old cousin, asmar ullah, was killed by a missile fired from an american drone as he rode his motorcyc
