YA
Bijan Majidi, U.S.-born of Jordanian and Iranian parentage, makes the winning shot in a basketball game, skyrocketing him from nerd to popular jock. But then somebody sends a doctored-up photo of Bijan dressed as a Muslim fighter to the whole school; next, a gay couple is victimized by the cyberbully. This compelling high-school drama about cyber-bigotry unapologetically insists that these groups are "here to stay."
