Women of Colour in 2018 For as long as Porochista Khakpour can remember, she has
been sick. For most of that time, she didn't know why. A story of survival, pain
and transformation, Sick examines the colossal impact of illness on one woman's
life. It is a journey that took Porochista Khakpour from Tehran, the town of her
birth, through the major cities of America, the country she came to call home,
before she eventually found a diagnosis of late-stage Lyme disease. Sick
explores what it means to feel at home in one's body, and also one's country.
And what it means not to.
