This British comedy follows a wannabe stuntwoman who wants to stop her sister from getting married.

The hilarious new British comedy Polite Society establishes its stars Priya Kansara and Ritu Arya as ones to watch.

They play two British-Pakistani sisters, Ria and Lena Khan, in Nida Manzoor’s feature directorial debut.

Ria is a teenage schoolgirl who knows martial arts and dreams of becoming a stuntwoman, while Lena is an art school dropout with no direction.

At a fancy Eid soirée, Lena hits it off with Salim (Akshay Khanna) and within weeks, they are planning their wedding.

Ria is unable to accept that her older sister is leaving home and becomes convinced that Salim and his mother Raheela (Nimra Bucha) are bad people.

She recruits her best friends Clara and Alba (Seraphina Beh and Ella Bruccoleri) to help sabotage the relationship and save her sister.

Is Ria telling the truth about Salim and Raheela? Is she delusional? Is she fabricating her claims to keep her sister at home? You’ll have to wait until the third act to find...
