When Asian immigrant and working-visa holder Iris discovers that her work has been left uncredited once again during a key presentation, she decides to fight back. Trapped by her visa status yet desperate for justice, she hunts for lost footage that could expose her manager’s racism—only to confront what resistance might cost her. As colleagues stay silent and the system tightens around her, Iris must choose between survival and defiance—in a world that never promised her land beneath her wings.
