Quickening
Sheila (Arooj Azeem), a young Pakistani-born woman, is a newcomer to Canada. She's studying performing arts at university and although she's struggling to impress her teachers, at the same time she's discovering herself, which is causing conflict with her mother Aliya (Bushra Azeem), and father, Azeem (Ashir Azeem) even though they're less traditional than most other Pakistani parents.
But when Sheila tries to fit in with her Canadian school friends and asks her parents if she can go on overnight stays and find her way home from school on her own rather than having her mother pick her up each day, they begin to worry that things are going too far.
