Friheten til å være den man vil
I denne spesielle episoden blir vi kjent med 28 år gamle Jawad Raja, sønn av forfatteren Abida Raja, og hans historie om en oppvekst i et konservativt norsk-pakistansk hjem preget av negativ sosial kontroll, og fysisk og psykisk vold.
Jawad deler åpenhjertig om hans utfordrende oppvekst og hvordan han til slutt søkte hjelp. Med det sosiale støttesystemet som bakteppe, avdekker vi kompleksiteten han møtte på, og vi belyser kampene han sto overfor. Her løfter vi fram hvordan Jawad tok kontroll over sitt eget liv.
