British-Somali teen Muna (Kosar Ali) is desperate to go on the school trip - to have fun with her mates, escape the monotony of her conservative household and, of course, provide the greatest playlist of all time (!!). But her parents aren't so sure. Tragedy strikes when her grandfather dies back in Somalia, and Muna has to navigate a confusing mourning period for someone she never really knew - all while still hoping to persuade her mother about the trip. Preparing for the wake, Muna reflects on hers and her grandfather’s life, discovering there's more that connects the two of them than she ever realised...
