MOGUL MOWGLI – Riz Ahmed & Bassam Tariq

Film Forum Presents

In today’s episode, Film Forum presents a Q&A with filmmaker Bassam Tariq and star Riz Ahmed from the opening night of their acclaimed new drama MOGUL MOWGLI on September 3. In the film, Ahmed (who also produced and co-wrote the film with Tariq) gives a tour-de-force performance as a British Pakistani rapper whose successful career is threatened by a sudden illness that forces him to reckon with his own family, identity, and heritage. The Q&A was moderated by Shaka King, filmmaker of last year’s Oscar-nominated JUDAS AND THE BLACK MESSIAH.
