About this movie

Two closeted teens from Bed-Stuy, both black and Muslim, hawk goods across Brooklyn and struggle to come clean about their sexuality. The two of them unwittingly find themselves in the crosshairs of the War on Terror when surveillance footage of their secretive behavior is wildly misinterpreted in this smart indie comedy.

Ratings and reviews

Gays are punished and killed under Islamic law. That's not 'comedic' material.

I enjoyed this movie for the most part. I only wish it had a better ending.
