Kaur (2022) watch online

Kaur is a 2022 British short film co-written and produced by Parvinder Shergill and Juggy Sohal. It depicts a young British Sikh woman who decides to wear a turban against the advice of her father. Her father had been traumatised by his own experience of being a turban-wearing Sikh immigrant in Britain, when in the 1980s he found his own hair had been cut off after an assault after leaving the bus from school.

The film features Shergill as the young woman, Nina Wadia as her mother, and Stephen Uppal as her father. Kaur was first released in 2022 and toured gurudwaras, festivals and university Sikh societies in the UK. Before appearing on Netflix in May 2024, it was broadcast on ITVX and BritBox. Generally seen as a success at the festivals, it was later announced that the film would form the basis of a Hollywood feature film.
