A warm, character-driven coming-of-age story that blends family drama, romantic awakening, and the physical catharsis of wrestling to explore identity and belonging.

A secret new romance with Alma forces Zaynab to confront her complicated relationship with her recently widowed mother. In this coming-of-age Muslim melodrama, Zaynab copes by taking up Lucha-style wrestling.
