Synopsis
In a neighborhood rife with racial tension, a local girl falls for a recent immigrant who is
the victim of prejudice and shame.
Tina, a troubled teenage girl, is attracted to Dana, an Afghani girl, whom Tina tells us is
oppressively victimised by her substance abusing father, Karim. Initially, we trust Tina
and admire her protectiveness of Dana from the kids at school and on the violent estate,
but as we watch their friendship blossom we come to suspect that something is off.
