Beautiful People -- Jasmin Dizdar's BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE is a lively, darkly comic vision of Bosnian refugees making a new life in London and the Londoners whose lives they change.

"Beautiful People" is a comic collision of chaos and coincidence! Auteur Jasmin Dizdar constructs an absurd world with colorful, contradictory and moving inhabitants whose lives haphazardly, and often humorously, intertwine. In the midst of modern London birth, death, isolation, prejudice and heroism--as well as the social and political realities of the outside world--touch them all through the most bizarre yet meaningful encounters.

Writer/director Jasmin Dizdar follows the lives of everyday Londoners who are doing their best to navigate everyday chaos. From Balkan refugees to unexpected pregnancies, from unwanted boyfriends to unwanted legs, these ordinary people find their lives are inexplicably entwined. The outstanding ensemble cast includes Julian Firth, Danny Nussbaum, Charlotte Coleman, Steve Sweeney, Rosalind Ayres and Edward Jewesbury.
