Four Lions tells the story of a group of British jihadists who push their abstract dreams of glory to the breaking point. As the wheels fly off, and their competing ideologies clash, what emerges is an emotionally engaging (and entirely plausible) farce.
"Four Lions is the feature debut of the controversial filmmaker Chris Morris (who would later direct episodes of series like Black Mirror and Veep), with a sharp, biting, and uncomfortable storyline. It follows four young British Muslims who want to become suicide terrorists to attain glory... though they are completely incompetent at it. Given its nature, it's a very dark film, but its very existence is a defiant act, offering both cruel mockery and thought-provoking questions. If you prefer your entertainment to be uncomfortable yet intelligent, you've come to the right place."
