Sixteen-year-old Kelly is a typical South London teenager, English through and through. Until her unknown father turns up out to the blue, and turns out to be Iraqi. He wants her to accept a gift of a priceless antique from the Baghdad Museum. She wants him to stay and get to know her. Kelly embarks on an epic journey of discovery in a tender and provocative play about family, identity and the clash of cultures.
