Arman's Freedom

Eager to escape a dark history in his home country, Arman arrives to Kuala Lumpur with a clear goal: complete a degree in journalism and escape to a life of freedom in the West. Meanwhile, his dreams are haunted by a dragon named Dahag, whose presence is a constant reminder of the shame he caused his parents in Iran, and his days are spent trying to make new friends while hoping they don't automatically think he's a terrorist. Arman's worst nightmares come true, however, when he is found guilty by association in an attack on the Petronas Towers and promptly becomes the most wanted man on the planet. On the run, he is able to find temporary solace in both crowds and caves, but it seems that the forces at work since the Iranian Revolution, which so thoroughly destroyed his parents' dreams, would bring a dramatic and crushing end to his as well. Until, that is, he comes across a mysterious man who promises he can help Arman get through the fire.
