Their divorce, months later, led to years of "if only..." Pressured apart by family and fate, they repeatedly crossed paths, never quite reconnecting, never quite letting go.

With the country on the verge of collapse, their secure lives turned into a desperate struggle for survival. Serge faced economic turmoil and personal demons within the country. For Janna, social pressure and sectarian violence led to escape in America, separating them in both time and distance...
