Synopsis

After nine years spent learning "how to be a good Pakistani daughter" from the grandparents who raised her, Hava is excited to touch down at the San Francisco airport and reunite with her mother, her cab-driving father, and her surly, fully-Americanized younger brother. Thrilled by the new culture that surrounds her, Hava hopes to take advantage of opportunities less available to women in Pakistan, including enrolling in college classes and working part-time at a coffee shop. Will she manage to achieve her goals? Is arranged marriage her path, or will romance bloom with her new American friend Justin?
