a| The Redemption of General Butt Naked follows Joshua Milton Blahyi, also known as General Butt Naked – a brutal Liberian warlord who once believed he was blessed with supernatural powers that enabled him to dodge bullets. He went into battle naked with his army of child soldiers, ruthlessly delivering death and destruction. Today, Blahyi has renounced his violent past and reinvented himself as a Christian evangelist; he travels the nation of Liberia as a preacher, seeking out those he once victimized in search of an uncertain forgiveness. Is it possible to forgive such crimes? Filmmakers Eric Strauss and Daniele Anastasion track his often troubling path up-close, finding both the genuine and the disconcerting in Blahyi's efforts, raising questions about the limits of faith and forgiveness in the absence of justice. A compelling portrait of an extraordinarily complex personal odyssey, a film that explores both the power and the limitations of faith and forgiveness.
