Behind the loud and intimidating motorcycles of the “Bangladeshi Bad Boys” is a group of second-generation Bangladeshi men who find in their bikes a sense of identity and a way to overcome racism.
Co-directed by Arun Nangla and Laura Pavone, London Boys offers surprisingly vulnerable moments as it lifts a curtain on the racism faced by the Bangladeshi community in the UK, as well as the frustrations, hurt, and pain that come with it.
With a loving lens on East London, the exploration of masculinity and Islamophobia is poignantly told by men facing an identity crisis at the intersection of the generational racism they’ve endured.
