On the eve of the 2016 election, six first-generation immigrant students from a Bangladeshi Muslim community in Hudson, NY are thrust into a complex vortex of identity politics and fear; arranged marriages; forbidden love; and the guilt of leaving to attend college.
As the older generation works hard to support their growing families while becoming ever more insular, the younger generation reexamines gender identity and the cost of love while remaining young ambassadors of Islam.
