Synopsis

Two teenage friends are roaming the neighborhood together and are having a conversation. The boy asks his friend about her headscarf, as a joke he rips it off her head and drives away. Afraid of the consequences of being seen, the girl runs after him. The unusual chase leads the two of them to new insights and a bit more openness.
