A captivating and haunting piece of writing, I Call My Brothers puts audiences inside the immigrant experience in America, through the eyes of a young Arab-American man.

Something has happened. A car. An explosion. And a city is paralyzed with fear. But Amor has an important errand to run. He walks the streets with his backpack and his cell phone, doing his best to blend in. But what looks normal? In this funny and fierce showdown with paranoia, I Call My Brothers offers an intense 24-hour journey inside the head of a young Arab-American man, suddenly a stranger in his own city. What happens when the lines between reality and fantasy, love and fear, criminal and victim, become increasingly blurred?**Please be advised, show contains profanity and reference to adult topics.
