A Haunting History plot

"Torn by the war of South Sudan"

After studying in England, the young, ambitious lawyer Anuol returns to his native South Sudan. Haunted by the traumatic warfare that struck him as a child, he dedicates himself to his mission that the law is the only true guide to bringing lasting peace to the country. When a new civil war breaks out, Anuol is confronted with opposing views from his compatriots. On the contrary, they want to forget the past, while he wants to bring those responsible for the violence in the civil war to justice. Only then, he believes, can people reconcile with history and work towards a peaceful future. Will Anuol's ideal of justice ever become a reality?
