Sound of Torture is a documentary film that follows the story of Meron Estefanos, a Swedish-Eritrean radio host.

She broadcasts a weekly radio program on the situation of the Eritrean hostages held in Sinai, during which she fields live calls from hostages and their relatives.

It is a harrowing journey, leading Meron to Israel and the Sinai Desert, and exposing the horrific reality of the torture camps and of the many victims they have claimed.
