1988: In a multicultural pocket of inner-city Melbourne, sixteen-year-old Caleb falls in love with Samira, his Lebanese neighbour. Both understand the rules that determine they're not allowed to date, but neither stays away. As they hide in the branches of a giant fig tree, their forbidden love blossoms ... until tragedy pulls them apart. 1998: A chance encounter has reunited Caleb and Samira. Now that she's no longer the sixteen-year-old girl he fell in love with but a beautiful grown woman, Caleb is certain they'll have a second chance. But cultural rules don't go away simply because they're adults. Instead, they're left facing the same battle they did as teens. Except this time, Caleb realises the threads of culture and heritage are woven much deeper into his own life than he could've imagined. He has a choice. To fight for the woman he loves, or to do what everyone before him has done. Follow the rules.
