Zed, a British rapper of Pakistani descent, is on the cusp of the biggest break in his career - a life-changing world tour. Returning to the UK to reconnect with his family before hitting the road, he is struck down by a mysterious illness. With his condition worsening, Zed descends into a physical and emotional crisis that puts his flourishing rap career in jeopardy.

Award-winning documentary filmmaker Bassam Tariq's debut narrative feature, MOGUL MOWGLI is an electrifying, occasionally disquieting, exploration of masculinity, social mobility and multicultural identity featuring a remarkable lead performance by Riz Ahmed (NIGHTCRAWLER, THE SISTERS BROTHERS).
