In 1985 Los Angeles, 12-year-old Miriam is chosen to be the first bat mitzvah in her Orthodox community—a controversial decision that divides the congregation. Stifled by traditional expectations of womanhood, Miriam secretly skips her rabbi’s lessons to pursue skateboarding under the wing of a homeless teen. But when her double life is exposed, Miriam must choose between sparking change in her community or chasing her own dreams—realizing that true rebellion is not rejecting tradition, but reshaping it on her own terms.
