A fight against evil, a hidden community, the power of friendship, and leaving home to be yourself. These films are all about finding your people.

As told by filmmaker Alexander Farah through a deftly composed array of small yet pivotal moments, a first-generation Afghan Canadian man takes steps toward establishing an identity of his own while always conscious of his father's shadow.
