After immigrating from China to New York City, a teenage girl and her family struggle to adjust to the new world they've found themselves in.

Yixuan Liu, a 16-year-old Chinese girl, just moved from China to America with her family. Trying to assimilate to a new school, a new city, and a new culture, Yixuan chose an English name, "Emma."

As she works to succeed in school and make friends, Yixuan is confused by the anti-Asian and anti-Black racism she hears from her teachers and her friends. And it isn't until she can move from striving to succeed to learning to be herself that she can make sense of it all.

Balancing chaotic school life with divorcing parents, her sister's mental illness, and a new crush, Emma must ask herself, "How do I find who I really am?"
