Excerpt
JUDY WOODRUFF (Newshour): Next, a final installment in our series from the Economist Film Project.
It's about Joshua Milton Blahyi, also known as General Butt Naked, one of Liberia's most feared warlords. He was responsible for killing and maiming thousands during Liberia's 14-year civil war.
Then, suddenly, the general renounced his violent past and reinvented himself as a charismatic Christian evangelist.
His story is told in the new documentary titled, "The Redemption of General Butt Naked."
Filmmakers Eric Strauss and Daniele Anastasion spent five years with Blahyi, tracking his often troubling path as he sought forgiveness from his victims.
Here's an excerpt.
