In American Caravan, six young Americans travel across the Middle East in the footsteps of the Arab Spring. The narrative is driven by the cast’s quest to meet people, to find out what is going on, and to be inspired by the Arab Revolutions. But what starts out as an exercise in public diplomacy and news gathering becomes a life changing experience wrought with danger, fun, conflict, joy, sadness, music, love and transcendent happiness as they travel to Tunisia, Egypt, Oman, The Emirates and Lebanon.
