‘UK Asian Film Festival’: Imitiaz Ali & Onir Among Filmmakers Set For 27th Edition — Full Lineup
The UK Asian Film Festival runs Thursday 1st - Sunday 11th May at venues across London, Leicester, and Coventry.
Described as a “bold and moving celebration of diversity,” the anthology explores identity, belonging and resilience through four true stories of underrepresented voices in Australia—a queer man reconnecting with his father; a deaf dancer chasing her dream; a food blogger bonding with a homeless poet; and a refugee girl finding hope through cricket. The film follows the story of a chance encounter between a South Indian officer and a local Kashmiri man that blossoms into a tender, secret romance in the border village of Gurez. “Whether it’s a poetic road trip in Parikrama, a riotous Gujarati comedy in Jai Mata Ji, or the shimmering legacy of Raj Kapoor, these films embody the deep ache to find where we belong,” Bhamra said.
