Boogie Man
In this heart-warming romantic comedy, a British-Indian teenager struggles with his cultural heritage in modern-day London. Whilst attending a 1970’s themed exhibition, he falls for an actress/model and sets out to woo her. He becomes obsessed with both her and the seemingly more glamorous 70's era, only to be caught up in the dark side of the celebrity lifestyle that surrounds her. His family is pressuring him to keep their traditionalism alive, but will the impending responsibilities of adulthood prove too much for him?
