Chocolate is a coming-of-age family drama set in East London, directed by multiple award-winner Shehroze Khan. Featuring an exhilarating soundtrack of some of London’s best up-and-coming hip hop and grime artists, the film stars Mohammedally Shushtari in his electrifying debut.
17-year-old Jordan has grown up his whole life without a father, his only releases being music and football. When his elusive uncle Diego comes to visit for the first time in years, Jordan finally has a male role model to look to. As he slowly realises that Uncle Diego goes against everything Jordan’s mother stands for, he is confronted with the biggest question in his life – what does it mean to truly be a man?
