George Khan, proud Pakistani and chip shop owner -- Ghengis to his
kids -- rules his family with a rod of iron. He thinks he's raising his
seven children to be respectable Pakistanis. But this is Salford in the
North of England, in 1971. Much as George's English wife, Ella, loves
and tries to honor
her husband, she also wants her
kids to be happy. The children, caught between bell-bottoms and arranged
marriages, simply want to be citizens of the modern world.
