A wonderfully offbeat comedy about teenage self-discovery in the early '70s, Anita & Me explores the world of 12-year-old Meena (Chandeep Uppal), who has moved to England with her Indian family. In the tradition of Bend It Like Beckham and My Big Fat Greek Wedding, she is embarrassed by her eccentric relatives and friends and latches onto the town bad girl, the blonde, rebellious Anita Rutter (Anna Brewster). At 14 - blonde, aloof, beautiful, outrageous and sassy - Anita is everything Meena thinks she wants to be. Meena wheedles her way into Anita's life, but the arrival of a baby brother, teenage hormones, impending entrance exams for the posh grammar school and a motorcycling rebel without a future, threaten to turn her salad days sour.
