Born to Punjabi parents in the West Midlands, Sathnam's memoirs are a humorous, touching, and emotional story of a second-generation Indian growing up in Britain. The Boy with the Topknot is an account of his childhood and facing up to a bunch of painful family secrets and truths in his twenties, not least that his father and sister had suffered from schizophrenia and that he was going to defy expectations of an arranged marriage. This stunning film is hilarious and heart-rending in equal measure, and this adaptation paints an authentic portrait of an everyday family, capturing how they work, love, and fight like any other, and how they learn to live with mental illness. The Boy with the Topknot is something truly fresh and uproariously life-affirming. Includes subtitles for the Hard of Hearing.
