Park Meeting Room
This ode to the music of Bruce Springsteen is set in 1987 England. Javed, a British teen of Pakistani descent, writes poetry as a means to escape the intolerance of his hometown and the inflexibility of his traditional father. When introduced to the music of “the Boss,” Javed sees parallels to his working-class life in Springsteen’s lyrics and finds the courage to express himself in his own unique voice.
