Description
In post-colonial Morocco, among the fragile embers of a newly fledged
nation, one shepherd boy from the mountains managed to obtain the
unthinkable – an education. Now Europe, along with the opportunity to
continue his path of learning, beckons Jusef bewitchingly from across
the water.
So begins a colourful journey of intertwining
possibilities and unforgettable encounters as Jusef forges his path in a
land far removed from the cultures and traditions of his past. But in a
continent engrossed in a new, cultural awakening, Jusef finds himself
embarking on an awakening of his own: a transformational quest of
perseverance, courage and identity that challenges everything he once
knew, for expanses and horizons as yet unspoken.
Jusef’s story is
a testament to the extraordinary path the journey of life can take when
one dares to hope, showing above all, that some dreams are worth
chasing – even if doing so does prove to be An Odyssey in Blue.
