Movie night with Iris.
This has the feel of 1980s Film on 4 and a bit of Donnie Darko. Riz Ahmed leads with a performance that is his most personal and affecting yet. This tackles questions of family, identity, religion, integrity and illness in a way that never feels forced. It's an engaging, heartfelt rumination that feels very personal but emotionally hooks you from the first bars.
It does look cheap, and that can be jarring at times. However, it mostly hits the right emotional beats. Mogul Mowgli is a gripping, emotive and thought-provoking examination of British-Pakistani culture.
