Abu

[A] well-made documentary that manages to charm you, while also following that dictum to #SpeakYourTruth.

The story's details may be specific to the Khan family but Abu's themes will resonate with anyone who has ever struggled to fit in - and hopefully, even those who haven't.

It may have taken over forty years for this debut to reach the big screen, but let's hope it doesn't take another forty before we get a chance to see another of Arshad Khan's candidly honest and uniquely moving autobiographical efforts.

...it left me with little more emotional or artistic fulfillment than one of those banal objective documentaries that are the bane of film critics.
