Riding Time is a compelling documentary that explores tent pegging, an ancient South Asian cavalry sport taken up by British colonial officers, now thriving in two distinct UK scenes: the elite national team and a growing Pakistani British community.
The film follows Jaleel, a dual-heritage teenager in Bradford, as he navigates his love for horses and dreams of show jumping while stepping into a traditionally male world. Filmed over three summers, it reveals themes of identity, migration, and connection to land.
Join us for a screening followed by a Q&A with director, Farhaan Mumtaz, and producer, Roopa Gogineni, who will discuss the filmmaking process, the significance of the sport, and its cultural context.
