    • Synopsis
    • Exposes the radical ideologists indoctrinating thousands of jihadists. They venture to Gao and Timbuktu in Mali to meet Omar Old Hamaha, head of jihadist group Ansar al-Sharia; to Mauritania, to meet a young imam from Nouakchott; and finally to Tunisia. The raw documentary also displays ISIS's propaganda images, bereft of commentary or voiceover; the creators have taken the risk of confronting the audience with unedited Salafist rhetoric, for a greater understanding of what we are up against.
