In writing this zesty but tender rom-com, Fawzia Mirza—also the film’s star—mined her life experience as a Muslim Pakistani lesbian living in Chicago. Zaynab (Mirza) finds herself falling for the effusive Alma (Sari Sanchez), but isn’t ready to come out to her mother—played by Indian cinema legend Shabana Azmi, star of "Fire" (1996), the first Bollywood film to feature a lesbian relationship. A lawyer by day, Zaynab channels her conflicted feelings into lucha-style wrestling.
