Introduction

After undocumented immigrant Isio is discovered by British authorities, she is remanded at Hatchworth Removal Centre, where deportation looms. Nothing could have prepared her for such a gruelling environment. Luckily, her roommate Farah is there to keep her spirits up. But what begins as a tentative friendship, blooms into something much more profound in this powerful, heartfelt and all-too-pertinent drama.
