South Asian Heritage Month Film Screening:One Day in Whitechapel + Sandstorm by Seemab Gul
BLOC Cinema Arts One Building Queen Mary University London 1 Westfield Way
One Day in Whitechapel (13 mins) Two teenagers start their day on the opposite sides of the barricades during a racist demonstration in Whitechapel, East London. When Sam watches her friends beat a young skinhead, instead of joining the fight, she saves the boy. An unlikely friendship sparks when the two teenagers are stuck in a shed hiding from threats outside. Sandstorm (20mins) Zara, a schoolgirl in Karachi, shares a sensual dance video with her virtual boyfriend, who then blackmails her. Caught between his manipulative behaviour and the desire to experience love on her own terms, Zara searches for the strength to reject the confines of a patriarchal society. Followed by Q&A with director Seemab Gul. Book tickets: £5 Photo by Mathias Reding on Unsplash
