AK depicts the horrible story of child warriors in Africa. Paul was a homeless orphan boy when guerilla soldiers found him wandering in the bush. The soldiers taught him to carry a gun, an old AK, and become a “Warrior” — someone to prepare meals for a soldier “uncle,” serve as a sentry or act as a decoy in ambushes. When the war ends, Paul’s uncle, Michael, declares that the boy is to be his adopted son. It will be Paul’s job to get an education, learn English and study the country’s dominant cultures. All arms are to be turned in to the government, but Paul buries his AK in a secret place.
