Mustache

The film follows 13-year-old Ilyas as he navigates the turbulent waters of public school after being pulled from his Islamic private school. Set against the backdrop of Northern California, Ilyas faces not only the normal challenges of adolescence but also the added pressure of his prepubescent mustache, which becomes a source of insecurity.

With a runtime of 81 minutes, Mustache delves into themes of puberty, identity, and acceptance. Ilyas devises a humorous plan to return to his old school, but the journey teaches him valuable lessons about self-acceptance and embracing change. The film features a diverse cast, including Atharva Verma, Rizwan Manji, and Hasan Minhaj, which adds depth to the coming-of-age narrative.
