This will be the first attempt visually to document the war against terrorism in Nigeria through the lenses of 618 ex Boko Haram combatants who were either forcefully conscripted or willfully recruited into the deadly terrorist group in West Africa. The film reveals their past, the penance for redemption, and hope to find forgiveness through the Operation Safe Corridor; a humanitarian exercise to rehabilitate and reintegrate repentant ex combatants to the communities they once knew as homes, but one that may no longer be in existence, or recovered for them to go in. In the last 3 years, de radicalization and rehabilitation exercises were conducted with less than 200 ex combatants, but there is no audiovisual evidences in the public domain or civic space. It blew clouds of suspicion about how factual, practical and realistic the process was. This documentary tells this story through Kukawa 68, Abdulahi 54, Sirajo 23, John 25, Anas 28, Aminu 20, Gorima 28, Goni 30, Rawa 20, and a group of 10 persons with disabilities who are victims of the jungle laws that govern the terrorist group. Each time anyone disobeys, they stand a risk of losing an arm or other parts of their bodies.
