Synopsis
Dr. Harold Banks is a retired professor of comparative literature and Afghan Studies, waiting for Geetee, his adopted daughter, to return from teaching in Afghanistan, her native country. When Nazrullah, an Afghan refugee, suddenly arrives on his Nebraska doorstep armed only with Geetee’s copies of The Diary of Anne Frank and The Old Man and the Sea, the two men become unlikely roommates. Set in both Maidan Shar, Afghanistan, and Omaha, Neb., Heartland is the story of a father, his determined daughter, and a journey toward mercy.

Media Reviews
“An unforgettable chronicle of love, culture, and humanity.” –broadwayworld.com (New York)
“Rife with comedic brilliance and the triumph of the human spirit.” – broadwayworld.com (New Jersey)
“Folds complex matters of international diplomacy and Western imperialism delicately into a tender, fraught father-daughter story. … [Crafted] with sensitivity, but not sentimentality.” – The Star-Ledger
“On the one hand, it is a tender love story that unfolds in the midst of war. On the other, it is cry of rage against one aspect of that war, a ‘j'accuse’ aimed at agencies of the United States government.” –Talkin’ Broadway
