Unmasking Jihadi John: Anatomy of a Terrorist is an HBO documentary about the radicalization of Mohammed Emwazi. A British citizen who enjoyed a privileged upbringing in London, Emwazi became the world’s most wanted ISIS terrorist after the international news media brought attention to his killings and bestowed on him his current nickname. Director Anthony Wonke traverses this difficult subject matter with eyes wide open and moral compass finely tuned.

Debuts on HBO on Wed.,  July 31.
