One man's attempt to make a difference in war-torn Southern Sudan, a battle against disease, famine and the suffering of political conflict. Isolated on the edge of rebel territory, the gruff and abusive Londoner, Thomas Reylds, has managed his independent aid center for over a decade. With an impending outbreak of Noma, a gruesome childhood affliction, he ventures even further into rebel held lands to eradicate the disease. Recently shackled with an intrusive, self-obsessed reporter and do-gooder teacher, he must risk his camp and life to manipulate the volatile insurgents to reach and treat the children who are the future of war torn Sudan.
