🌍 Plot Summary
Years after escaping the brutal life of a child soldier, Agu (Caleb Landry Jones) struggles to piece together a sense of normalcy in a nation still scarred by war. The ghosts of his past linger—faces, choices, and blood he can’t forget. Seeking purpose, he creates a sanctuary for children caught in the same darkness he once endured, a place where healing might outshine hate.

That fragile hope shatters when a rising militia strikes, abducting several of the very children Agu swore to protect. Forced back into the violence he vowed to leave behind, Agu takes up arms—not as the broken boy he was, but as a man determined to stop history from repeating. With the help of Samuel Kofi Donkor—a fellow survivor turned ally—Agu faces his most personal battle yet: rescuing the innocent and proving that redemption is more than a dream.
