The film explores the complex world of Los Angeles gang members, Lebanese and Palestinian militias, and Pakistani militants dating from the 1970s to present day. It also spotlights community leaders, religious leaders and educators who are facilitating the rehabilitation of radicalized youth. The film aims to demonstrate that violent extremism and its recruitment methodology and orthodoxy of hate do not pertain to a specific culture, religion, region or nation-state, and that effective methods used to help youth out of the cycle of violence are the same everywhere.
