Art/Film is a new film criticism anthology that examines the collaboration between cinema, fine art, music, theatre and the internet. As part of the book’s international tour Film East present a special screening of Bassam Tariq‘s Mogul Mowgli (2020).
On the brink of his first international tour, Zed (Riz Ahmed), a British Pakistani rapper, decides to fly home to the UK to visit the family he has not seen in two years. In the midst of trying to reconnect with his parents, he is suddenly struck down by an autoimmune disease. As his condition worsens and his big breakthrough moment is in danger of vanishing into thin air, Zed descends into a physical and emotional crisis, amplified by vivid hallucinations.
The film will be introduced by Shelby Cooke, Art/Film‘s editor and Film East‘s founder, who will give a brief presentation on Riz Ahmed‘s multi-media project, The Long Goodbye, and how it connects to Mogul Mowgli‘s narrative, as explored in Art/Film’s “The Moving Exhibit.”
