2001. The DREAM act is first proposed. The Twin Towers fall. In New Jersey, two teenagers forge a friendship that becomes a sanctuary. Both brought to America as children, G and B support each other through life’s harsh circumstances. When G becomes naturalized, she and B hatch a plan to marry so that he may legally remain in the country and pursue the future he imagines. But as time hurdles on and complications mount, their intertwined lives become tangled in the realities of love, longing, and belonging in an unwelcoming country.
