Salim Amin, son and only child of Mohamed "Mo" Amin, undertakes a journey of recollection and reflection into the life of the frequently absent, globe-trotting father he loved, revered and feared. Training his candid lens across continents, Mo Amin's thirst for breaking news puts him repeatedly in harm's way - enduring weeks of torture, automatic arms fire, explosives and ultimately, the amputation of his left arm - to become one of the most decorated news cameraman of all time.

The documentary depicts Mo as an unbending, unforgiving and unapologetic Journalist whose hunger for "the story" propels him to ever greater professional heights - often at the expense of those he cherishes.
