Synopsis:
A Young Muslim couple, Bariz Shah (25) and Saba Afrasyabi (24), leave for their birth country Afghanistan to fund 51 microbusinesses to honour the 51 Muslims martyred on March 2019, in their hometown of Christchurch, New Zealand. They buy a camera and record as they work closely with their recipients, changing lives with only US$250. Bariz and Saba's own stories as Muslims living in the West weave through this story of making a powerful choice to meet hate with love.
