Yasamin Karimi, a Persian teen, tries to fit in at a 2004 high school. When she dyes her hair blonde, she unwittingly unleashes a demon tied to the parts of herself she wishes to erase. A horror tale with heart, exploring the cost of assimilation and the power of denied identity.
Opening short: The Indestructible (Dir. Kalen Artinian)
