He Escaped Slavery to Fight the Revolution--- But Freedom Came at a Terrible Cost.

Описание: What if the American Revolution wasn’t freedom for everyone?
In this powerful cinematic story, we follow the journey of a young boy captured into slavery, forced onto a plantation, and later drawn into the chaos of the Revolutionary War. When the British Crown promises freedom to enslaved people willing to fight, he risks everything — crossing rivers under gunfire, surviving brutal battles, and watching history unfold from the shadows.

But when America wins independence, the question becomes terrifyingly clear:

What happens to the enslaved who fought for the losing side?
From the cotton fields of South Carolina to the battlefields of Yorktown… from the freezing shores of Nova Scotia to the founding of Sierra Leone — this is a story of survival, betrayal, sacrifice, and the true cost of freedom.
This is not just history.
This is the human side of revolution.
