One day when Amal is riding the public bus, she is talking to an elderly lady next to her. All of a sudden, she hears the volume of the bus radio go up and she sees the bus driver looking straight at her in the rearview mirror as a news report blasts through the interior of the bus. The news report is a hyperbolic take on Muslim terrorists, causing Amal to realize that the bus driver is targeting her with his actions.
