What Will People Say (Hva vil folk si)
It is a dramatic story of a strange kind where the story tells about a drama of 16-year-old Nisha, who is still living a double life. In Norway and at home with her family is the ideal daughter of Pakistan, but when she is with her friends, she is a normal Norwegian teenager. Nisha may act like a restful girl where her father holds her in bed with her boyfriend, and things may be too bad to do so. The world of Nisha changes as Nisha's parents decided to put it with relatives in Pakistan. Perhaps it is a strange place and in a country that you have not visited before, Nisha has to adapt to the culture of her parents, which she has not known anything yet.
