Synopsis:
In a gangland ruled by ruthless men, an unusual legend emerged.“Boomah” is the hood name for Zein (30), brought up in the streets of Jordan’s notorious Zarqa region.

But what makes Boomah’s legend larger than life is that she is a woman challenging a society dominated by men. While Boomah aims to dismantle the decades-old dominion of street thugs and religious extremists, she must also confront the traumas of her past and care for those closest to her. As Boomah’s influence grows, she is confronted with the perils of her new empire, but then she is given a choice: Boomah’s closest ally promises her a way out. Should she stay and rule in a city that is filled with painful memories and a dangerous future, or should she escape to a paradise so far removed from the ugliness of life in Zarqa?
