There are currently more people living in slavery than at any other time in human history. One such family has been enslaved in a rock quarry in southern India for 10 years-over a paltry debt of $70 USD. Indian government representatives, supported by the human rights group International Justice Mission, plot a daring raid to free the family.

In The Central African Republic, the lives of a Christian rebel soldier, a rebel’s wife, and a Muslim doctor intertwine in a true story of violence and redemption.
