This paragraph is where I inferred this, especially the second portion I'm putting down in the second >
> Mohammed Al-Hamiri, one of the men featured in the film, told the Guardian that he wasn’t aware the film would be accessible internationally and only found out that it had been made available online after its showing at Sundance. “My life is already difficult but this film poses a serious threat to my life and that of my family,” said Al-Hamiri.
> *Another man said that he had explicitly told the film-maker that he did not want to be featured in the film but his wishes had been disregarded.* The film’s director Meg Smaker says that all the participants in the film signed consent documents and denied that the men expressed any fears in correspondence with her.
Personally, I am more or less ambivalent to the film currently as I've only heard about it due to the controversy and that Sam Harris covered it. Perhaps it's extremely meaningful and perhaps not, I haven't had time to process it.
