Justin Tolchuk is a sensitive, lanky 16-year-old just trying to make it through the social nightmare of high school in Medora, Wisconsin. When his well-meaning mom Franny signs up for the schools international exchange student program, she pictures an athletic, brilliant Nordic teen who will bestow instant coolness on her outsider son. However, when the Tolchuks exchange student arrives, he turns out to be Raja Musharaff, a 16-year-old Pakistani Muslim. Its going to be a very interesting year for Raja, Justin, his family and the entire population of Medora.
