Behind the facade of the loud and intimidating motorcycles of The ‘Bangladeshi Bad Boys’ is a group of second-generation Bangladeshi men who find solace in their bikes and community around Shoreditch and Brick Lane. 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 of 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.
