Johnny Mad Dog

This I got to see yo!!!

Directed by French Director Jean-Stéphane Sauvaire, Johnny Mad Dog is an ultra-realistic portrayal of the gruesome life experienced by child soldiers during the Liberian civil wars (although the identity of the country is not made explicit in the film). While the story itself is based on a fictional novel of the same name by Emmanuel Dongala, many of the the actors in the film are actually former child soldiers who witnessed and committed some of the worst atrocities.
