At age 23, Reed Paget, an aspiring filmmaker, decides to travel the world documenting ancient ruins and natural wonders. What he doesn't predict is that his decision to take a job in China will put him in the middle of the landmark student protests in Tiananmen Square and set him on a years-long journey to some of the most hazardous places on earth. From Tel Aviv to Nicaragua and Vietnam, Paget drinks with generals, becomes friends with locals and documents every dangerous step of the way.
