The Painful Familiarity of "Ish" The latest film from artist Imran Perretta, "Ish" is an urban pastoral that explores the complexities of young masculinity, identity, and community in the face of systemic racism.
Set against the backdrop of Luton's streets and woodlands, the movie follows two teenage friends, Ishmail and Maram, as they navigate their relationships with each other and the world around them.
The film's setting is notable for highlighting the often overlooked experiences of Muslim and south Asian communities in Britain.
