What lifts Mirza’s film above the pack is that it is alive with colour and music & her characters are endearing” – Little White Lies

Azra is worlds apart from her conservative muslim mother. When her father suddenly dies on a trip home to Karachi, Azra finds herself on a Bollywood-inspired journey through memories, both real and imagined; from her mother’s youth in Karachi to her own coming-of-age in Canada.

While paying homage to the classic Bollywood film and song “Meri Sapno Ki Rani” (literally “The Queen of My Dreams”), the film’s heart lies in Mirza’s very personal look at her own family dynamics and quest for self-discovery. The film is an insightful, comedic, and moving examination of South Asian identity.
