Niente velo per Jasira (2008)
La tredicenne Jasira viene mandata a vivere dal padre libanese nel momento in cui la madre americana s'accorge dello sguardo che il nuovo compagno posa sul suo giovane corpo. La ragazza è nel pieno della fioritura sessuale e a Houston si trova a scontrarsi con le vedute ristrette del genitore cristiano nonché con le angherie dei compagni di scuola che subisce per via delle sue origini. Decisa a scoprire da sola il sesso, s'immagina protagonista delle foto dei giornali per uomini che scova nella casa dei vicini dove fa da baby sitter al figlio della coppia. Travolta dall'ebbrezza dell'orgasmo (autoindotto), Jasira s'infatua del padre del bambino che ricambierà con un malcelato e pericoloso interesse erotico.
