KNOW YOUR PLACE

By Zia Mohajerjasbi

Robel Haile, an Eritrean-American boy of 15 from Seattle, WA, embarks on an errand to deliver a suitcase across town destined for a sick family member in his parents homeland. He enlists the help of his best friend Fahmi Tadesse, when an unexpected turn transmutes his simple task into an odyssey across Seattle; navigating obstacles to make his delivery on time, along with the challenges of familial responsibility, self identification, and dislocation amid the economic displacement of the only community he’s ever known as home.
