Commentary from Writer Hanif Kureishi and Director Roger Michell

This gripping, touching coming-of-age drama set in 1970s London will make you completely rethink the safety and security of the suburbs. Karim (Naveen Andrews, Lost, The English Patient), a teen born of an English mother and an Indian father finds his South Land home life deteriorating, so he attempts to establish his own identity. Dabbling in a life of drugs, experimental theater, punk rock, fancy parties and all the sex a young man could desire, Karim is introduced to an entire new world. Authentic, amusing and often disturbing, The Buddha Of Suburbia is based on Hanif Kureishi's novel, and features a stunning original soundtrack by David Bowie. Also stars David Bamber (Rome), Harish Patel (Kama Sutra) and Brenda Blethyn (Secrets and Lies).
