Summary:
"The story of Jamal (Jason Raize), a first generation Egyptian-American who struggles to strike a balance between his personal aspiration of "making it" in the music business and the responsibilities his immigrant father, Farid (Mark Margolis), forces upon him. The two are confined together in Farid's bodega located in the multi-cultural neighborhood known as Hell's Kitchen.
