Without revealing too much, this is the story of a British Indian actor, Zayan, whose career is disappearing fast. While he dreams of being the next James Bond, his best claim to fame is being dressed as a dancing bird in a fried chicken advert. The only roles he gets to audition for are doctors, cab drivers or corner-shop owners and he is not even successful in getting those.
His personal life is equally in bad shape. Behind with his rent, he takes catering jobs or sells weed for his cousins. He has been dumped by his girlfriend and just to rub salt in the wound, her new boyfriend is a successful actor who has a leading role in a BBC – HBO drama. Beyond this, he has unresolved family trauma that increasingly weighs heavily upon him. Professionally he’s not being seen for roles, in his personal life, he begins to believe that he is being noticed less and less by those around him.
