Mustache – Queens Film Screening

We’re excited to bring Mustache, the 2023 SXSW Audience Award winner for Narrative Feature, to the Queens community!

​Written and directed by Imran J. Khan, Mustache is a heartfelt and funny Muslim and South Asian coming of age story set in the mid 90s. The film follows 13 year old Pakistani American Ilyas as he leaves his Islamic private school and enters public school, navigating family, faith, fitting in, and the awkwardness of growing up, all while dealing with an inescapable mustache.

​With Riz Ahmed, Hasan Minhaj, and Ramy Youssef among the film’s executive producers, this is a story that felt especially meaningful for us to bring to Queens and our community.

​Following the screening, we’ll host a virtual Q+A with Imran Khan moderated by Jenni Loo and Humza Sohail, with panelists to be announced closer to the date.
