Sixth Happiness

Waris Hussein's acclaimed drama adapts Firdaus Kanga's autobiography, with Kanga in the lead as Brit, a young man born with brittle bone disease who has never grown taller than four feet. The film tracks his sexual awakening while his family unravels around him. A deeply moving drama that confronts stereotypes surrounding disability, sexuality, and race, it is anchored by a powerhouse performance from Kanga.
