War Child: "First-time filmmaker C. Karim Chrobog follows hip-hop artist Emmanuel Jal, a veteran of the 20-year civil war in southern Sudan who fled his devastated home in 1987. At a United Nations camp for Sudanese refugees in Ethiopia, Jal became the children's spokesperson and soon joined the Sudanese People's Liberation Army, training to fight the Arab-dominated north right under the UN's watch. After almost five years, he and his friends deserted, embarking on a harrowing journey that few survived. Now in his 20s, Jal is using his music to raise awareness about the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Sudan and the plight of child soldiers throughout the world."
