Nini and Jameelah just want to have fun, even with the possibility of Jameelah's deportation looming large. The girls' insistence on growing up and having fun, and their frustrating naivety, constantly leads them into potentially dangerous, life-changing situations. However, the film takes a sympathetic look on what being a teen is like, especially a teen facing deportation. Unlike a lot of its American coming-of-age counterparts, the teen actors look like actual teens, which lends to the film's great performances. An important look at issues, such as immigration, ethnic conflict, and teenage sexuality.
