What would you take if you had to leave your home forever?

It is 1990. Eleven-year-old Anvita's world is filled with Bollywood dances, beach picnics, and a growing collection of Barbies. But overnight, everything changes.

When Iraq invades Kuwait, Anvita's safe world disappears. With only a single suitcase in hand, she and her family leave behind the only home she has ever known and flee to India. But starting over is harder than she imagined. In a place that should feel familiar but doesn't, Anvita must find the courage to understand what she has lost, rebuild her connections, and find where she belongs.
