Bassam Tariq directs Riz Ahmed, Aiysha Hart and Alyy Khan in this British drama where a London-Pakistani rapper is struck down by a disease that means he will miss out on a big break he has worked years to position himself into.

Curious that the hyper talented Riz Ahmed decided to make two films with essentially the same basic plot and overlapping themes in the same year. This is the more obtuse, experimental and abrasive of the diptych. Admirable but a lot of the runtime I just wished I was rewatching the superior Sound Of Metal.
