Leveled

Synopsis
Safa, a 17-year old hijabi is about to embark on a day like no
other in pursuit of her dreams but time is of the essence.
Growing up in a multi-generational, Pakistani household, Safa is
forced to adhere to cultural ideologies by her over-bearing,
traditional grandmother, while caring for her mother who is sick
with cancer.

When Safa realizes her mother’s medication has run out on one
of the most important days of her life, she’s forced to navigate a
path that’s filled with levels of cultural stigma and islamophobia
from the community around her.

As she races against the clock, will she be able to help her
mother and believe in herself enough to see her dreams become
a reality?
