Having premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival, playing SXSW and many others, Fawzi Mirza’s luminous debut film, THE QUEEN OF MY DREAMS, opens in theaters exploding with color and sound.
Set against the rich, stylish backdrop of 1969 Pakistan, THE QUEEN OF MY DREAMS is a mother-daughter dramedy, that time-travels between generations to explore themes of cultural identity and family expectations.
At the center of the story is actress Amrit Kaur, who delivers an award-winning performance in dual roles as both mother and daughter—each navigating their own path between tradition and transformation.
Evoking the bold colors of classic Bollywood, THE QUEEN OF MY DREAMS is vibrant, emotional, and infused with humor. This is a film that will resonate with anyone who’s ever struggled to reconcile family, where they come from, and who they really are.
