Throughout the ravages of turmoil and persecution,

one family has harboured a hidden secret ...

Constantinople 1899

Identical twins of Armenian heritage, escape a devasting terrorist's

bomb. Unaware of each other's survival, Davit flees west to Paris,

while Vahan journeys east to Calcutta.

Inspired by actual events, the saga chronicles the lives of the

separated brothers and four generations of their families. It weaves

the paths taken as they travel to distant lands, seeking refuge from

atrocities, and their search for peace and fulfilment.

It tells how the families suffered the traumas of the Armenian

Massacres and Jewish Holocaust, how they struggled, how they

survived, how they flourished, and how, by chance, they came

together again ...
