Amal is a 16-year-old Melbourne teen with all the usual obsessions about boys, exams, chocolate and magazines.

She's also a Muslim, struggling to honour the Islamic faith in a society that doesn't understand it.

The story of her decision to 'shawl up' and its attendant anxieties (like how much eyeliner to wear) is funny, surprising and touching by turns.

• Exploring issues of faith and identity with the lightest of touches, this is a joyful exploration of what it means to be a Muslim teenager
