In the mid-1980s, Emmanuel Jal was a seven year old Sudanese boy
living in a small village. But after his mother was killed and his
father Simon rose to become a powerful commander in the Christian
Sudanese Liberation Army, fighting for the freedom of Sudan. Soon,
Jal was conscripted into that army, one of 10,000 child soldiers,
and fought through two separate civil wars over nearly a
decade.
Emmanuel Jal was seven years old when he became a soldier and went into battle with the rebel army in Sudan's bloody civil war. Believing he was being sent to school, Emmanuel trekked his way to a refugee camp in Ethiopia where he became one of the Lost Boys of Sudan. After nearly five years of fighting, Emmanuel was smuggled into Kenya by Emma McCune, a British aid worker, and finally began to have a childhood and an education. When Emma died tragically, Emmanuel struggled to find purpose in life but eventually - through the power of prayer and music - he succeeded. From child soldier, to refugee, to rap star, War Child is one boy's incredible story of survival and triumph.
