Janey Godley and Sanjeev Kohli star in a family comedy drama for the 21st century.

Janey Godley and Sanjeev Kohli star in a comedy drama about a mixed-faith family struggling with big philosophical questions, such as whether it is okay for boys to wear eyeliner.

A comedy drama in which feisty Catholic Therese-Ann Dar and her staunch Muslim mother-in-law Ayesha are both on a mission to claim the moral and religious high ground in their family. The constant warring between the women makes life for Therese-Ann's husband Bob (or Babur to his mother) a little weary. However it fascinates Bob's fourteen year old son, Anas who documents his mixed-up life in a series of interviews called "The Identity Project". When Anas's journey of self-discovery leads to what both women consider to be an alarming destination, they put aside their religious and cultural differences for at least a whole four seconds. Janey Godley, Sanjeev Kohli and Sajeela Kershi star in this family comedy for the 21st century.
