[edit] Synopsis

The movie concerns, Alim (Jimi Mistry), a young gay Ismaili Muslim man. Born in Toronto, he moved to London to get away from his conservative upbringing. He faces the hardships of coming out of the closet to his mother Nuru (Suleka Mathew), as well as hardships in his relationship with Giles (Kristen Holden-Ried). Alim has an imaginary friend (or maybe a guardian angel or ghost friend, depending on how literally or symbolically one takes the film) who is supposedly Cary Grant. Grant (Kyle MacLachlan) gives Alim advice when Alim is in trouble. Unfortunately, the advice often seems to make more trouble.
