Twelve-year-old Simon has lost everything to the civil war that has devastated his country.

As an expert in weapons and battle strategies, he has formed a rebel group that wants to take power by force with the help of child soldiers. Simon is kidnapped and turned into a child soldier. Traumatized and plagued by nightmares, Simon plans to escape with his comrades while special forces of the African Union prepare an attack on Black Lion.
