When queer Arab musician Lem Zakharia arrived in Sydney heartbroken with two weeks of clothes, a Christmas visit became an asylum journey. This 4-part collective memoir features her ex-girlfriend, family, and friends sharing raw accounts of the same pivotal moments. From almost getting caught by police in Jordan to Arabs Got Talent, from heartbreak to unexpected love - this is the messy reality of being displaced twice.
