What Will People Say (Hva vil folk si)
In a dramatic story of a different kind. The story tells of a 16-year-old girl named Nisha who may live a normal life like a teenage girl. Over time, Nisha merged with her friends, she is a normal Norwegian teenager. Things may be different and later on as her father takes her in bed with her boyfriend. At that time, Nisha's parents decided to put it up with relatives in Pakistan, where everything seems different in that country. It seems that things are going wrong for Nisha in a country she has not visited before, urging Nisha to adapt to the culture of her parents in Pakistan.
