“Guilt is an emotion for which I have no time. It's exhausting, stops you from having any fun, and is the equivalent of one of those T-shirts that says ‘I went to [insert adventure] and all I got was this lousy T-shirt’.”
In recovery mode after a messy divorce from a non-Muslim man, Lara Abdel-Aziz is estranged from her family and out of touch with her best friend Samira. She works in a fast food shop in Sydney, but also sings at a local bar. The owner, Leo, is good company, but her only other interactions are with mostly-absent flatmate Icky, and new age store owner Angela, who wants Lara to work for her and get in touch with her higher self.
Lara is comfortably on autopilot until a near-assault at work forces her into counselling and she must start to unpack the events of her life. Meanwhile, an encounter with someone from her past leads to an unlikely connection.
