- QUICK TAKE:
- Drama: A Pakistani teen living in 1987 Britain finds enlightenment and his own creative calling when a classmate introduces him to the music of Bruce Springsteen.
- PLOT:
- It's 1987 and Javed Khan (VIVEIK KALRA) is a 16-year-old who lives in Luton, England with his parents, Malik (KULVINDER GHIR) and Noor (MEERA GANATRA), and sisters, among whom Shazia (NIKITA MEHTA) is the closest with him. Like others of Pakistani descent, Javed must put up with nationalist racism and thus puts his feelings into his poetry, something his teacher, Ms. Clay (HAYLEY ATWELL), hopes to draw out of him. But what makes that happen is when a classmate, Roops (AARON PHAGURA), introduces him to the music of Bruce Springsteen.
Javed instantly feels a connection with The Boss and especially his working-class lyrics, something that Javed's new wave music loving best friend, Matt (DEAN-CHARLES CHAPMAN), simply doesn't get. But fellow classmate and political activist Eliza (NELL WILLIAMS) does, and soon she and Javed become a thing, all while the teen must contend with his traditional father not understanding him and his newfound love for all things Springsteen.
- WILL KIDS WANT TO SEE IT?
- Teens -- and especially Springsteen fans -- could be drawn to it.
- WHY THE MPAA RATED IT: PG-13
- For thematic material and language including some ethnic slurs.
