“After ‘Mina’ (Yaz Canli), a gifted artist experiencing homelessness, loses the last thing she loves, her adorable dog ‘Burrito,’ she is forced to battle through the downward spiraling journey of a mental health crisis to find home,” says the synopsis. “Lost between fragments of her Muslim past and harsh realities of her present — from substance abuse and the loss of Faith to abusive voices in her head — Mina must find a way to reconcile with deep grief and accept the kindness of others so she can start life anew. Eye-opening and gripping, Mina’s journey is the raw and unflinching story of a woman’s battle with mental illness, life on the streets, and the courage it takes to find her way home.”
