Exclusive First Look At Deepa Mehta's BEEBA BOYS

Long - and rightfully - regarded as one of Canada's absolute finest arthouse auteurs, Deepa Mehta is charting new ground with her latest effort. Basing her story around the real life criminal gang culture in second and third generation Indian immigrants on Canada's west coast, Mehta is now in post on Beeba Boys - the sort of character driven, gangster action that you would expect more from the likes of Johnnie To than the director of Water.

BEEBA BOYS is a ferocious, fast-paced story inspired by real incidents and characters. It takes us inside the world of Jeet Johar, a loving
single father, a dutiful son, a proud, observant Sikh and a ruthless
gangster managing a team of stylish, charismatic but brutal and
unforgiving young men. Competing with rival gangs for increasingly
shrinking turf, Jeet is under pressure that only increases when he falls
for a beautiful blond juror at his murder trial and takes under his
wing a new member with a suspicious background.

Randeep Hooda, Sarah Allen, Waris Ahluwalia, Paul Gross, and Ali Momen star. Take a look at the first still from the film below and remember you can click to enlarge
