Tight: The World of Indian Bodybuilding
12A TBC

Every muscle is pumped to perfection in this uplifting documentary following Aji, a young bodybuilder from South India. 
Documentary • Insightful • Provocative

The film follows Aji in his preparations to take on the northern musclemen and be crowned Mr India. Through Aji’s against-the-grain quest we witness a rapidly changing Indian society and the rise of this increasingly popular sport, where brotherhood and diversity are celebrated, and India’s first women bodybuilders are making an impact. The well-oiled biceps on show will inspire you to put down the parathas and head to the gym!

This special screening as part of the Yorkshire Indian Film Festival will be followed by a Q&A with director Elliott Gonzo.
