Movie Review
Grade: B
After being forced out of their native country of Sudan due to a violent civil war, three men, John, Daniel and Panther, must survive along with many of their fellow countrymen in refugee camps set up across the border in Kenya. In their early teens at the time, all three boys arrive to the camp shadows of their former selves, heavily malnourished and on the verge of death. Although they recovered, what was hoped to be a temporary safe-haven turned into a permanent home as their country’s civil war fueled on. Ten years later, John, Daniel and Panther found themselves still in the same camp. Catching a rare break, the three boys, now men, were given the opportunity to leave the camp and move to the United States as part of a refugee relocation program.
