After fleeing persecution at home, Nigerian migrant Isio is sent to Hatchworth Removal Centre, where she hopes her asylum plea will receive a fair hearing. Isio believes the only way out is to play by the rules, even when her charismatic new roommate, Farah, warns her otherwise.

In the confines of detention, Farah’s friendship brings colour to Isio’s world. As their unexpected bond blossoms into romance, Isio must decide whether to continue trusting in a broken system that threatens to tear them apart or dare to follow Farah into a risky plan that could cost them everything.

Joy Gharoro-Akpojotor’s visually bold and deeply moving directorial debut is a tender story of defiance, which insists that love can endure even in the most hostile places.
