Two Gods

Two Gods

A Muslim mortician takes two teenage boys under his wing and teaches them how to build caskets, wash bodies, and how to live. All of them are running from their pasts and struggle with coming of age in a place like Newark, New Jersey. Soon, they realize they need to rely on each other if they’re ever going to beat the streets and live up to the potential they've been fighting for.
