Aamir

Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms—to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.
- Viktor Frank

This phrase resonated in my mind when I watched the movie Aamir. It is a very well made movie where the protagonist is robbed of everything right from the moment he checks out of the airport and then becomes a puppet in the hands of fundamentalists. He does everything as the tone on the cell phone tells him, except for the last moment which makes for a gripping climax.
