The Syrian jewelry box

Carina Rourke is a young American growing up in blissful innocence in the Middle East until at age fifteen she is captivated by an obsessive desire to search inside of her mother's forbidden jewelry box where she discovers a shocking family secret. On the heels of her discovery, she and her family pursue her father's dream of an exotic drive through the Middle East and Europe. This journey serves as a metaphor for the woman Carina becomes---a silent nomad searching for identity.
