Amina lives on the edges of Mogadishu. Her family's house has been damaged in Somalia's long civil war, but they continue to live there, reluctant to leave their home. Amina's world is shattered when government forces come to arrest her father because his art has been officially censored, deemed too political. Then, rebel forces kidnap Amina's brother. She reacts by creating street art to give herself a sense of hope and to share with people all over the city who hope for a better, more secure future.
