Shauzia has a dream. She dreams of getting away from the refugee camp in Pakistan and travelling to France. There she knows she would find a better life, away from the war in her home country of Afghanistan ... But escape is not so easy. Once she leaves the camp, she has no money, no food?and only her dog Jasper for company. But Shauzia is determined to find a new future for herself .
