When Jonathan Okwir was 10 yrs old he was abducted and trained as a soldier to fight and kill for Kony’s notorious LRA army. Five years ago, Jonathan met Corrin, an Australian journalist working in northern Uganda, which kindled a life-changing friendship. Together they travel through refugee camps and villages devastated by the war collecting stories and shattered memories of other former soldiers as they begin the challenge of ascending Mt. Kilimanjaro. This beautiful film is a journey that ignites understanding and freedom for all former child soldiers and offers a vital corrective to the internet phenomenon ‘Kony 2012’ which gained over 100 million views on Youtube, as we meet the real victims without sensationalism and propaganda.
