The Goat Life

The Goat Life is the true story of Najeeb, a man who leaves behind his wife, mother and his unborn child and goes from the lush green lands of Kerala, India – famously referred to as ‘God’s Own Country ’ – to a desert country in the middle-East in search of a better life, a better future. In this leap into the unknown, Najeeb is forced into hard labour on a goat farm in the desert for years, loses all hope and his very identity. It is the touching story of his battle with extreme alien climatic and living conditions where he is cut off from his family and everyone who speaks his language. Battling both inner and outer demons, with just goats and camels for friends, armed with only hope and his spirituality as weapons, Najeeb embarks on a war with his destiny.
