About
Created by Sima Sheibani | Origin: Saskatoon, Saskatchewan
The story of a young woman who is challenged by simple questions about whether to leave or to stay. The conflict of her choice transforms her into a storyteller, which results in her confronting the truth at the core of her journey. A compelling story about choice, loss, and the cost of starting over.
