About the show

Stranger in a Familiar Skin" is a poignant narrative centered around John, who returns to his homeland in Kalulushi in Zambia after years spent abroad. The story begins with his arrival at the local airport, where he is enveloped by a sense of nostalgia and conflict. As he absorbs the familiar sights, sounds, and scents of his birthplace, John experiences a mix of joy and apprehension.

His emotional turmoil is briefly soothed when he is reunited with his sister, Tawonga, whose warmth and affection provide a comforting contrast to his internal conflict. Despite Tawonga's updates about their hometown and family, John is unable to shake off the feeling of being an outsider in a once-familiar environment. This complex mix of emotions lays the groundwork for a story of self-discovery, love, and loss, as John's return initiates a journey into the depths of his past, promising to alter the course of his life forever​​.
