Sixteen-year-old Shaila is a climate change activist, inspired by the memory of her mother, now dead, who was a scientist tracking the rate of glacier-retreat in the Himalayas. Shaila’s first action is to protest the drilling of Arctic oil, during which she oversees the cyber-dissemination of footage showing oil company employees being violent with protesters. A consideration of the relationship between mothers and daughters, and of the role modelling of physical courage as part of a girl’s inheritance.
