How far would you go to stop your eldest sister from marrying a total lemon? Now: how much further would you go if you had a full repertoire of martial arts moves at your disposal?
So goes the central question of Nida Manzoor’s new film Polite Society, which has a brand new trailer out today. Described as a “merry mash up of sisterly affection, parental disappointment and bold action,” Polite Society follows martial artist-in-training Ria Khan, an aspiring stunt woman with, as she tells it, approximately one fan: her big sister, Lena (Ritu Arya).
