As she continues forming her own identity, she takes for granted the rich heritage of her Lebanese family, and wishes only to disregard it. Her father sees this contempt during a summer visit to Lebanon, and regretfully allows for Maya to return home to Canada early, hoping that she will come to accept her family on her own. Only when war breaks out in the country and leaves her father stranded, does Maya realize it may be too late to reconcile with the dad she was once so close with.
