January 2000: Major Phil Ashby has joined the United Nations to disarm warring factions in Sierra Leone, West Africa. What he finds are bloodthirsty child soldiers controlled by a menacing rebel warlord. When some rebels turn in their weapons to Phil, the angry warlord goes on a violent rampage, and closes in on the UN team for revenge. Surrounded, outgunned and vastly outnumbered, Phil risks everything in a desperate 50-mile escape through rebel-controlled jungle.
