It tells the story of a young man and his unlikely group of young idealists who leave all to fight for salvation of a nation.

Featured reviews
In addition to the sloppy filmmaking, the content of this film is a disappointment.
It does not show how Museveni's NRA stole thousands upon thousands of cattle from his own people, forcing them into poverty, then celebrated him as East Africa's most lucrative dairy farmer.
It does not show how Museveni desecrated the nation's infrastructure, then pawned it off to Chinese corporations.
It does not show the brutality of Museveni's exploitation of child soldiers in his rise to power.
It does not show how Museveni seizes land and embezzles money for personal gain.
It does not show how foreign aid money is redirected to the wealthy rather than applied to communities.
It does not show reality.
It does not show truth.
