Days after 9/11, an "American terrorist" named Mark Stroman seeks revenge, shooting former Bangladeshi Air Force officer Raisuddin Bhuiyan. As Stroman and Bhuiyan rebuild their shattered lives, Bhuiyan has a radical idea: he must reenter Stroman's life and publicly forgive his attacker, sparing him from execution. In this gripping true story, two men on a collision course find redemption in the most unexpected of ways.
