Polite Society

Polite Society is one of the most original and entertaining films released this year, and to mark its April 28 release, we had the pleasure in speaking to the brains behind the project, the writer/director Nide Manzoor, alongside the film’s leading star, Priya Kansara.

We discussed the film’s unique and original elements, while asking Manzoor about the casting of her lead, and what made Kansara the perfect Ria. The actress tells us about doing stunts, while the pair talk about their own dreams and aspirations, and whether they, like the characters in the film, ever faced any conflict in their pursuit for a position in the arts. Watch the full interview in its entirety below.
