Norman Kowalskie has had a very tough upbringing. His family was forced to leave their war-torn middle eastern home country to find sanctuary in northern Europe.
However, the hard times don't end there; they are, in many ways, just beginning. Norman's father is a drug addict and has little regard for others, even his family, as he seeks to find his next fix. He even takes Norman with him when he goes to score so that Norman is a distraction if he should be stopped while driving.
