Two Somali youths from rival tribes fall in love in Toronto, facing conflict in their close-knit neighborhood. A modern Romeo and Juliet tale with Scott Pilgrim's style and Do The Right Thing's community dynamics.
Two Somali hearts in a Toronto neighbourhood choose to love each other despite the inevitable conflict they will face because they come from rival tribes. A Tribe Called Love is a Romeo + Juliet story that has the pop and pizzazz of Scott Pilgrim vs The World mixed with the tension, comedy and tightly-knit neighbourhood of Spike Lee's Do The Right Thing.—Andy Marshall, Producer
