Ghanimah

Synopsis

A heated argument occurs when Abdullah declares he is joining the British Military to the shock of his pacifist father Omar and anger of his fundamentalist older brother Moh. As their debate unfurls past resentments and revelations rise to the surface, boiling to a point where they can no longer contain themselves. The war on terror, the 7/7 bombings, the loss of the son's mother and the allegiance to either Islam or Britain. What will unfold. Family, Duty or Honour?
