- Summary
- The Domestic Crusaders focuses on a day in the life of a modern Muslim Pakistani-American family of six eclectic, unique members, who convene at the family house to celebrate the twenty-first birthday of the youngest child. With 9-11 and the scapegoating of Muslim Americans in the background, tensions rise and sparks fly among the three generations, cluminating in an intense family battle. As the "crusaders" struggle to assert and impose their voices and opinions, they also attempt to maintain and understand that unifying thread that makes them family.--Jacket sleeve.
