Two 11-year-old friends, Emma and Yasra, dream about moving to Hollywood to become big stars. They are doing everything they can to make their dream come true; they study celebrity magazines, practice singing and dancing, and raise money by selling coffee to neighbours. At the same time, the adults are busy with their own ambitions.
