The Reluctant Fundamentalist is a film about identities. Mira Nair's The Reluctant Fundamentalist is based on a 2007 novel by the Pakistani writer Mohsin Hamid, a quick read that dramatises some topical talking points in a cloying mock-pedantic style.

As a scene-setter it's impressive. An emotionally vibrant story of the scourge of terrorism, the nightmare of fundamentalism, the dangers of zealots of all types, and terrible results of xenophobia. There are a few incidents, but nothing seriously changes the conversation until 9/11. Video-mira-nair-articleLarge (1). It's about the identity of Pakistan, and the Muslim world.
