girl

Description:

A trusted member of her ultra-Orthodox Jewish community rapes
fifteen-year-old Hannah in the back room of a Brooklyn kosher
butcher shop. Unwilling to succumb to her parents’ demand that
she blame a homeless black man, she runs away. Alone and armed only with an indomitable spirit, quirky sense of humor, and
unyielding intolerance for hypocrisy and injustice she must make
her way on the mean and unfamiliar New York City streets.
