Event Details : Enlighten Film Society presents documentaries from across the world
at different venues in the city. Some about fabric, some about extraordinary athletes, some about
fundamentalists, but all of them, about the world. Become an Enlighten Film Society Member.
Screenings are as follows : 
My Brother the Islamist / Robb Leech / 6 PM
Tree surgeon turned film-maker Robb Leech is desperate to know why his white middle-class step-brother Rich became radical Islamist Salahuddin, who now associates with jihadist fundamentalists, and believes Britain should be ruled by Sharia law.
Marathon Boy / Gemma Atwal / 8 PM
Gemma Atwal's dynamic epic follows four-year-old Budhia, rescued from poverty by Biranchi Das, a larger-than-life judo coach and operator of an orphanage for slum children in the eastern Indian state of Orissa. When Budhia displays an uncommon talent for long-distance running, Biranchi nurtures his gift, heralding him as a folk hero for the impoverished masses, and maybe even for India itself. But after golden child Budhia breaks down during a world-record 65 kilometer run at the age of four, public opinion begins to turn on the guru and his disciple, and soon the two are swept up in a maelstrom of media controversy and political scandal.
