This gentle comedy follows a multi-generational group of Asian women on an outing from their Birmingham community centre to Blackpool. A breakthrough hit which picked up a BAFTA nomination, Bhaji on the Beach launched the careers of both director Gurinder Chadha (who started out as a roving reporter for Radio WM) and co-writer Meera Syal. The screening will be followed by a Q&A hosted by comedian Shazia Mirza.
