This is the story of Rafiq's transformation from child to boy soldier, as he is indoctrinated into the cause of fanatical belief. But his family have not forgotten him - when he can no longer recognise himself, they remember the boy he was, and reach out a hand of redemption as he spirals towards a final act of atrocity.
