“Whiteys wantta boneless meat ennet? And no sticky fingers. Their loss is our gain. This is like home food.”
Midnight Feast (2004)
Tamasha's first short film, inspired by the research which the company undertook during the making of Balti Kings, takes a glimpse into the unseen world inside a Birmingham balti house.
As they finish yet another long shift in the kitchen, six workers discuss their aspirations and failed dreams, while the boss upstairs counts his takings.
Midnight Feast was first screened at the Raindance Film Festival in 2005, and also the Tongues on Fire festival in 2007.
