Paper Planes is a short film set in 2007 during the Darfur conflict in West Sudan. The story centres around a young boy named Alier who is forced to flee the city with his family when it is put under attack by air strikes and militia infantry. During their escape his father dies from a gun shot and he is left with his mother and sister to trek toward the Chad border with thousands of other refugees. He befriends a UN soldier and is subsequently kidnapped by African militia fighting with Arab rebels. A boy confused for a father figure, he soon finds himself trapped between African militia, UN and African Union peacekeepers and a country being torn to shreds.
