This is a story about two people whose lives are shattered by the same act of violence, but in very different ways.
Oliver loses her parents as a child in the 9/11 attacks. Consumed by grief, her pain hardens into a deep hatred that shapes her entire life.
Omar is an Iraqi teenager whose family is torn apart by the wars that followed. Forced to flee to America, he faces hostility and fear in his new home.
The story follows Oliver and Omar over many years as they navigate loss, anger, and the search for meaning. It explores how trauma can twist into hatred, and whether it's possible to break free from the cycle of revenge and find a path toward healing.
