Bad Indian – The Villain Origin Story, is a coming of age comedy-drama about Abbey, a young woman from Croydon. When Abbey lies to her strict Catholic Indian mother about her rejection from Cambridge University her only method of escapism is to have one memorable night at the infamous Tiger Croydon’s A-Level Results Party. But what happens when the truth she's been running from violently slaps her in the face. Created as part of the NFTS x Prime Video Directors workshop, a 12-month course designed specifically to increase the number of people from under-represented groups working in screen directing.
The director Abbey Monteiro notes: 'I wanted to tear up the stereotype of being British Indian, throw it in the bin and light it on fire. Allowing asian women to be chaotic, provocative and angry failures with all the repercussions.'
