Hiding in America

Mekhaeil Zacharias, a sixteen-year-old Copt who escaped the ISIS massacre in Sirte, finds refuge in New York City with help from fellow Egyptians. Amidst the city's allure and a complicated relationship with a beautiful Muslim girl, he grapples with his identity and faith. As he navigates the challenges of hiding from his pursuers, Mekhaeil faces a profound internal conflict about his beliefs and purpose, questioning whether he remains true to his Coptic Christian roots or has transformed into someone entirely different.
