UK Asian Film Festival/ Ajji

Directed by Devashish Makhija

UK Asian Film Festival, the longest running European Asian film festival celebrates its 20 years of showcasing cutting-edge independent films with this first screening at HOME.

When the old tailor known fondly as Ajji finds little Manda dumped in a trash heap near her slum, it is the beginning of an exploration of the horrors of toxic masculinity. Ajji shows us the realities of the world we live in and ultimately becomes the family’s saviour.
