On the cusp of adulthood and thus, deportation orders, the three friends come up with a plan to escape over the ongoing mountains. When newcomer Aida\u00a0(Sarah Aman Mentzoni) begins a star-crossed romance with Hamid, the escape plan is jeopardized, commencing an unconventional portrayal of the hopes and dreams of these young asylum seekers. Although a story of their anxiety and despair, Hisham Zaman creates a celebration of their unique resilience in this world.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":5456,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1608","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pages.stolaf.edu\/cc2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1608","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pages.stolaf.edu\/cc2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pages.stolaf.edu\/cc2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pages.stolaf.edu\/cc2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5456"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pages.stolaf.edu\/cc2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1608"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/pages.stolaf.edu\/cc2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1608\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1630,"href":"https:\/\/pages.stolaf.edu\/cc2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1608\/revisions\/1630"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pages.stolaf.edu\/cc2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1608"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
