From Aleppo to the Ghetto! JACIR, is a glance at the divided U.S. political system through the eyes of a young Syrian refugee on the streets of Memphis, Tennessee, as he faces the harsh realities of chasing the American dream. All the while living in poverty, witnessing social injustice while dealing with his conservative, cable-news-consuming, and opioid-addicted next-door neighbor, Meryl (Bracco). Knowing very little English and far from the ideal new American life he imagined. Jacir (Rahbani) embarks on a journey to win the affection of a new love interest, Nadia, while dealing with her overzealous dad Adam; and measuring a newfound friendship with an African American line cook and rapper named Jerome.
