Kings of Mulberry Street

Set in the early '80s, feisty Ticky Chetty is a skinny kid who enjoys the outdoors, is creative and energetic, and has tons of street smarts. He lives in a Bollywood dream world where he’s an unbeatable action hero, and rooftops are his kingdom. He is looking for a partner in crime and sees a trainee in Baboo who just moved into the neighborhood with his single dad. Chubby and bookish, Baboo is equally imaginative and spirited. Having threatened their families, the two nine-year-olds decide to rid their community of the evil local crime boss Raja. They soon discover that they have lots to learn from each other. A marvelous adventure with universal themes that will appeal to the whole family. (Pan African Film Festival)
