In this documentary from Swan Films tradition and the modern world collide. This film tells a universal story – the immigrant experience in Britain – by immersing world-renowned dancer Akram Khan in a very specific location: the Bangladeshi-owned curry houses of London’s Brick Lane. Described by the Guardian as a dance between life and art, the personal and political, is also a meditation on the people who brought curry to Britain.
