'Boy, Everywhere' chronicles the harrowing journey taken by Sami and his family, from privilege to poverty, across countries and continents, from a comfortable life in Damascus, via a smuggler's den in Turkey, to a prison in Manchester. Once safe in the UK, Sami is bullied and decides he'd do just about anything to return to Damascus - including, possibly, becoming a stowaway. His is a story of survival, of family, of bravery - and of how thin the line is between 'them' and 'us'. How far would you go to find your way back home?
