Description
Karim, a half-Asian, half-English teenager from the 1970s London suburbs is mortified when his civil servant father plunges into an affair with the exotic Eva and begins passing himself off as a spiritual guru. But, swept along into a different world, Karim's eyes are opened to a whole new life of drugs, experimental theatre, punk rock, fancy parties, and all the sex a young man could desire.
Much of Karim's story is about a personal journey to establish his identity as he seeks to escape his suburban origins. He negotiates adolescence, dysfunctional families, relationships and his own sexuality, all set to a 1970s backdrop of politics, fashion, music, drugs, morality and race. The BAFTA winning 'The Buddha of Suburbia' is a hilarious, scandalous and provocative coming-of-age drama, which provoked controversy and moral furore when first screened on British TV in 1993.
