I’m British But . . .
30m
Directed by Gurinder Chadha • 1989 • United Kingdom
Gurinder Chadha’s unique look at Asians in Britain offers intimate snapshots of second-generation immigrants, interwoven with archival footage and set to invigorating Bhangra and Bangla music. From Manchester rooftops to embattled Belfast and the Welsh hills, Asians discuss the importance of expanding “Britishness” to include all kinds of cultural identities. They present an array of viewpoints on the roles that race and cultural identity play in their own lives and in British society as a whole.
