In a vibrant community marked by cultural celebrations and deep-rooted traditions, two estranged friends, Tiwa and Said, find themselves thrust together on a mission of urgency and significance. The heart of their neighborhood—the Islamic Center—is facing demolition, a threat that stirs up layers of nostalgia and unresolved emotions from their past relationship.
As they navigate the complexities of planning their beloved center's defense, they are compelled to confront the reasons behind their fractured friendship. The struggle to save a cherished space becomes intertwined with personal revelations and rediscovery, as both Tiwa and Said grapple with their identities and what it means to belong.
Their journey is colored by the warmth of community gatherings that highlight the importance of connection and heritage. Each Eid celebration serves as a poignant reminder of the beauty found in tradition, even amidst the looming shadow of change.
Through moments of tension and heartfelt collaboration, they learn that sometimes, rebuilding connections is just as essential as preserving the fixtures of one's culture. In vying for a common cause, they not only fight for the physical space but also for the bond they once shared, rekindling hope against the backdrop of a rapidly changing world.
