Forbidden Fruits is a story about the colliding of three different worlds… African Americans, Chaldean Americans and Arabic Americans. Shawn, a college student from Cleveland, falls in love with a Chaldean girl named Crystal that attends his university in Detroit. Shawn's Cousin Mark, a local street thug, warns him to leave "those kinds of girls" alone because their families will never permit it to flourish. Forbidden Fruits is a modern day Romeo and Juliet story in which Shawn refuses to abandon his love and instead chooses to hide his romance from those closest to him. (official distributor synopsis)
