As the son of the Imam of the local Brooklyn mosque, young Daud has to juggle the high expectations of his father and his feelings of isolation and difference – even from his peers in the Muslim community. Through an innocent act of good faith, he inadvertently befriends a group of Jewish boys who mistake him for a fellow classmate at their Orthodox school. A genuine friendship grows between Daud and one of the Jewish boys. Unable to resist the joy of a camaraderie that he has never felt before, David, as he is known, is drawn into a complicated dilemma inspired by youthful deceit and the best of intentions.
