Somalia. Road Warriors
Description
Welcome to Bermuda, an enclave in South Mogadishu where, they say, those who go in never come back. Every street leads into enemy territory, and fighters never sleep for fear of attack. It's a place that most journalists simply don't visit. This documentary goes deep inside Somalia's most dangerous areas for a close look at the anarchy that followed the failed U.S. intervention there, and the role of the Islamic court in trying to restore order. Riding alongside a charismatic and youthful militia group as they zealously carry out the orders of their new master, the film also examines the appeal of radical Sharia.
