What goes on in the mind of an artist, an immigrant, a lonely soul? How do you stick up for yourself, make your life memorable, embrace your truth? How do we navigate this rapidly changing world? This collection of films created by students explores these topics and more in many powerful ways.
Ismat, an undocumented retail worker in Queens, New York, is a volcano waiting to erupt,and her new co-worker Jesula becomes the trigger for it. Unable to get a day off for her daughter’s birthday, Ismat’s dislike and jealousy for the young and sexy Jesula slowly grows as Jesula catches the attention of their belligerent boss Bobby Patel. One night, Ismat secretly witnesses something and takes an action that will haunt her forever.
