Based on the 2003 epic novel by Monica Ali about a Bangladeshi family living in the UK, and explores the British immigrant experience. “Brick Lane” is the story of a beautiful young Bangladeshi woman, Nazneen (Chatterjee), who arrives in 1980s London, leaving behind her beloved sister and home, for an arranged marriage and a new life. Trapped within the four walls of her flat in East London, and in a loveless marriage with the middle aged Chanu (Kaushik), she fears her soul is quietly dying. Her sister Hasina (Zafreen), meanwhile, continues to live a carefree life back in Bangladesh, stumbling from one adventure to the next. Nazneen struggles to accept her lifestyle, and keeps her head down in spite of life's blows, but she soon discovers that life cannot be avoided - and is forced to confront it the day that the hotheaded young Karim (Simpson) comes knocking at her door. Set against the changing backdrop of multicultural Britain, “Brick Lane” is a truly contemporary story of love, of cultural difference, and ultimately, the strength of the human spirit.
