Product Description:
This documentary follows Bader Ben Hirsi, an Englishman of Yemeni extraction whose parents were exiled from the Middle East some years before his birth. As the film opens, Ben Hirsi decides to journey to Yemen for the first time, to discover his roots. Upon arrival, he teams up with Tim Makintosh-Smith, an über-eccentric Briton who has lived in the Yemeni city of Sana'a for 16 years and knows the lay of the land. As the two men travel throughout the country together, they forge a tight bond of friendship.
