episode 1: leaving america
An Afghan American doctor, Ali Karim, leaves his job and life behind two weeks after the election of Donald Trump, frustrated by a divided and nationalist United States, on a mission to educate Americans back home by filming and documenting the lives of those less fortunate and sharing their experiences straight from one living room to another across thousands of miles via social media. Along the way, Ali attends Fidel Castro’s funeral, an Indian wedding in Delhi, and ends up living with Buddhist monks in Asia on the beginning of his journey to discover humanity.
