Esa Aldegheri: The Freedom Drive

It’s the stuff of dreams. Esa Aldegheri sets out, carefree, from Orkney on a motorbike with her partner. In the cold fog of winter they cross to the citrus orchards of the Mediterranean, then on to the Syrian hills of Hatay, then Pakistan, India, China… For 18 months they travel, crossing 20 international borders, exploring the complexities of freedom, womanhood and human connection. Aldegheri discusses her transformative journey in Free to Go, in this horizon-expanding event with Nadine Aisha Jassat.
