Description
Spanning 30 years, Road to Damascus is a true story of two sisters, separated at a young age and brought up in different countries. Suzan, 12, is taken to Amman, Jordan, after her father's death in 1965, while her baby sister, Jigi, is left behind in a south London hospital.
Despite being separated, both sisters face significant challenges in their lives. Jigi, born with a rare bone disease, navigates the difficulties of school and a society that discriminates against those with disabilities. Meanwhile, Suzan is passed around various family members in Amman, eventually forced to marry a man she dislikes and face a life of hardship. However, when Suzan discovers her mother's mysterious visit to London, she sets out on a journey to find her long-lost sister, Jigi.
As Jigi embarks on a roller-coaster trip to find her sister, her life is forever changed. This heartwarming and often challenging true story is a testament to the power of determination and the unbreakable bond between two sisters.
