Second, the plot

In a court in a small town in Lebanon, Zain, a boy of 12 years old, was sentenced to prison for stabbing people with a knife. However, with the support of lawyers, Zain sued his parents because they could not provide him with protection and safety.

Zain's parents are poor and can't afford to raise their children, which means Zain can't get an ID card, so Zain is a black household who is not qualified for a passport, can't go to school, and even can't get help in the hospital in an emergency.

Zain is the eldest son of this family. In order to support himself and his brothers and sisters, he was forced to deliver goods for the local grocery store. The grocer's boss has an evil interest in Zane's sister. When Zain's parents sold his sister to a grocer, Zain was very sad and ran to a seaside town, where Zain met an Ethiopian immigrant, Rakhil, who was a kind person.

Her life is a little better than Zain's. Rakhil concealed that she had a one-year-old son Jonas. In order to avoid the supervision of employers and government departments, she always puts her children in the shopping cart at work. She lives in a shed made of plastic and gravel and is trying to save money to buy a fake ID card.
