Fifteen-year-old Roxy is caught in the flames of adolescence, teetering between the carefree days of girlhood and the treacherous terrain of womanhood. Seeking solace, she gathers her friends, delving into the realm of witchcraft in an attempt to unravel the mysteries that plague her. Shadows lurk, ready to consume the ones she holds dear. As friendships fray and the fire rages, the group unravels the bonds that unite them and uncovers the secrets that surround them. Maryam Hamidi's Moonset is a blazing coming-of-age tale that delves into the depths of love, rage, and self-discovery. Set against the backdrop of a small town, four young women embark on a journey to reclaim the power that was promised to them.
