When she came of age, she began to doubt the faith and principles with which she was brought up. it was awkward pretending to be one person at home and another at school. Managing two completely different and separate existences became an impossible task... The director wanted to show her experience growing up as a first-generation Muslim American, which shaped the script, as well as the experiences of other Muslim American girls she knew as a child.
