Polite Society is a London-set anarchic action comedy that follows Ria Khan, a bolshy schoolgirl and martial artist-in-training who dreams of becoming a world-renowned stunt woman.
Ria witnesses her big sister Lena give up on her dreams by dropping out of art school and getting engaged. Her sister’s engagement shakes Ria’s world. She believes she must save her sister from the shackles of marriage in the only way she knows, by enlisting her friends’ help and attempting to pull off the most ambitious wedding heists in the name of freedom and sisterhood.
Written and directed by Nida Manzoor, the Polite Society is a merry mash-up of sisterly affection, parental disappointment, and bold and bloody action.
Polite Society has a cast led by Priya Kansara, Ritu Arya, Kapoor, Ella Bruccoleri, Seraphina Beh, Shona Babayemi, Nimra Bucha, Jeff Mirza and Akshay Khanna.
