In an auditorium full of teenagers. Adil shares the story of his upbringing in the 90s in a Muslim family, where he was subjected to extreme social control by his father. When he discovers breakdancing, he finds his refuge. Very soon an astonishing career starts, and from the outside everything looks good. But the consequences of his upbringing soon start to show, and he begins to lose control. Adil is the story of coming face to face with your inner self, believing in yourself and managing to find your way back to who you really are.
Adil is based on the lecture that Adil Khan has traveled the country and coast with for many years, and which more than 500 000 young people and adults from all walks of life have listened to and been engaged by. Using 2D animation, archival material, new footage, sound, and music, Adil is a hard-hitting documentary with a big heart. A raw and direct disclosure about a life full of contrasts, told with a great desire to inspire and influence.
