When her dad loses his job as a security officer and has to work interstate, Huda convinces her brother Akeal to sneak out at night to make mischief. They hope that introducing some minor crime activity into the neighbourhood will force their dad's bosses to hire him back. The dynamic duo begin their crime spree by pushing over bins the night before rubbish collection. They're almost caught but that's only the beginning of the hot water they end up inches As their activities escalate, will they be able to outsmart the authorities? Huda is brave, but how much is she willing to risk for family unity and what else might she and Akeal uncover along the way?
