TRT: 82:00For two decades, the Acholi people of Northern Uganda have been caught in a civil war between a rebel group whose main objective is inhumane terror and a government whose military response has often increased suffering. Over 1.5 million people have been displaced into camps and over 25,000 children have been abducted as soldiers and sex slaves. Against this backdrop, children who have never known peace live as if they still believe in the future. The embodiment of resilience and hope, this film tells their story, and that of Uganda's fight to be free.
