Moved by the silencing of the Kurdish language by Turkish laws, renowned American storyteller Diane Edgecomb embarks on a journey of intrigue and heart to record the last Kurdish storytellers. This is the deeply moving, richly humorous story of her travels through the remote mountains of Turkey and of the extraordinary people who shared their lives and their stories with her. There is one world, but a thousand doorways – Kurdish saying

“An uplifting story of how the human spirit triumphs in the face of all odds.” -Broadway Baby

This special matinee is followed by a light reception hosted by First Church Boston and a talk-back with Diane Edgecomb and Kurdish artist Selahattin Sep whose evocative paintings are on exhibit at First Church throughout the month of March.
