A merry mash up of sisterly affection, parental disappointment and bold action in writer-director Nida Manzoor's (Channel4's We Are Lady Parts) feature debut.
Martial artist-in-training Ria Khan (Priya Kansara) believes she must save her older sister Lena (Umbrella Academy’s Ritu Arya) from her impending marriage. After enlisting the help of her friends, Ria attempts to pull off the most ambitious of all wedding heists in the name of independence and sisterhood.
Polite Society throws, spins and punches the genre etiquette book out the window to deliver an action-packed comedy that is at once original, goofy and quirky - a story of true female empowerment with an extra ka-pow!
The Wed 20 Nov 11:00 Cinébabies Screening features an introduction by director Nida Manzoor.
The Thu 28 Nov 18:00 screening is followed by a Q&A with director Nida Manzoor, hosted by Hannah Marie Williams and Lowri Roberts from Frank Film Club.
- There will be a Cinébabies screening (for parents/carers of babies under 12 months) of Polite Society on Wed 20 Nov at 11:00.
