Pink Rabbit

Details

A fiery Pakistani teenager leads a double life - hiding her secret as a webcam girl from her strict mother - but what happens when her 'halal' good Muslim persona is discovered to be a sham. Amna longs for the teenage dream - spicy hookups, scandalous parties, being Instagram famous; but with a traditional Pakistani mum always trying to 'control' her, can never seem to reach it. Feeling like, 'no one wants to date the brown girl' she finds herself on Omegle one night, intrigued with toying with older men, she delves into the world of online sex webcams. Pink Rabbit is more than just a teenager's coming of age story - it's a powerful poetic piece about the push and pull that children of immigrants feel in Britain - internal struggles with being Muslim and external struggles with Islamaphobia; fearing racists but also fearing judgement from the Pakistani community; desiring men's approval whilst being disgusted by the male gaze. A British Pakistani daughter and a Pakistani Pakistani mother.
