Chasing High

'I promise you, I will make you proud, just give me this chance. Is it because I am a girl and wants to play sports as a living? Or is it the fact that I shouldn't take risks? '

Atifah Hussain is a nineteen year old Northern-Irish girl who has a dream; which the asian community think is crazy. She wants to become a professional basketball player and play for a proper Olympics team like Team GB . Her parents disagree with her dream and much prefer her to become a doctor or take on her father's food business.

Most of her family think she's highly stupid and think she is a girl; so she can't be playing sports as a profession. Her family thinks girl's are weak when it comes to sports and business.
Atifah thinks that her family are wrong because all they seem to care about is their appearance in public.

Will she be able to cope with the perks of being a hijabi basketball player?

Will she go ahead and follow her dream or follow what has already been planned for her?
