About

18-year-old Sumera is an ambitious high school student who has dreams of making a name for herself. However, her world comes crashing down when she is physically and sexually assaulted by an acquaintance on her way home from work. From a strict Pakistani background, Sumera not only has to deal with the trauma of the attack but also the knowledge of how it will impact her family and their reputation within the community. When it becomes clear that the authorities cannot help her, Sumera is unable to cope on her own and confides in her best friends. Finding strength in numbers, these four girls - from different cultural backgrounds - join forces to face the world together and to plot revenge on Sumera's attacker.
