Plot
A thousand years ago, one boy with a dream of becoming a great warrior is abducted with his sister and taken to a land far away from home. Bilal (Andre Robinson) and Ghufaira (China Anne McClain) find themselves bound to the ruthless whims of the most powerful man in the city, Umayya (Ian McShane). Thrown into a world where greed and injustice rule all, Bilal will soon learn he must choose his own fate, and find the courage to raise his voice.
