Synopsis

When hijabs provoke insults and mosques are under attack, what does it mean to be 14 and Muslim? This documentary follows young teens as they make the transition from a private Islamic elementary school to public secondary schools and take their first tentative steps towards adulthood. Up-close and personal, 14 & MUSLIM looks at how ideas of diversity and tolerance play out in the Canadian classroom.
