Description

In 1977, a young Harvard graduate student struggles to balance his desire for assimilation with his loyalty to an old friend. A chance encounter in a Cambridge cafe sets him on a path that will test the limits of his values and identity. The student's life becomes increasingly complicated as he navigates two worlds: the rarefied world of academia, where he longs to belong, and the streets of Cambridge, where he finds freedom with his new friend Kalaj. As their friendship deepens, the student must confront the costs of becoming an American and the sacrifices that come with it. As final exams approach and Kalaj's future hangs in the balance, the student faces a difficult decision: to pursue his dream or risk everything for the sake of his friend.
