The story

Mahmud Nasir is a husband, father and a British Muslim who listens to rock music, particularly the long deceased pop star Gary Page, and occasionally drinks alcohol. His son, Rashid, wishes to marry his fiancee Uzma, but they need the blessing of her devout Muslim cleric stepfather, Arshad Al-Masri (Yigal Naor), something Mahmud is initially resistant towards, given Al-Masri's supposed links to Islamic extremists. However, he agrees to put on the act of devout Muslim for the occasion.
