About This Event
Set and filmed in Luton, Ish follows 12-year-old best friends Ish and Maram, who wrestle to hold onto their friendship in the wake of a police stop and search. As the ripples of that event take hold of their lives, the boys try to make sense of the men they are becoming ? and how letting go can be the hardest part of growing up.
Acclaimed artist Imran Perretta ? last seen in HOME?s gallery for A Riot in Three Acts ? makes an assured feature film debut with Ish: a powerful coming-of-age story sensitively attuned to the vagaries of youth, masculinity, friendship and family.
