A young woman joins the military to be part of something bigger than herself, but ends up as a new guard at Guantanamo Bay instead, where her mission is far from black and white. Surrounded by hostile jihadists and aggressive squadmates, she strikes up an unusual friendship with a detainee.

Kristen Stewart ofrece una notable interpretación junto a Peyman Moaadi en este absorbente debut del guionista y director Peter Sattler. Ambientada en la prisión de Guantánamo, Campamento Rayos X narra una historia íntima y conmovedora que se centra en el lado humano de un tema provocador.
