'My Name is Khan' is about a Muslim from Mumbai who suffers from Asperger's syndrome. At a young age he was taught right and wrong and educated on the views towards Islam and Muslims.
The line, 'My name is Khan and I am not a terrorist', is said several times in the movie, to make clear that the character is not dangerous and should not be feared due to the religion he follows.
The movie 'Bradford Riots' tells the story of a young Asian who was sent to jail because of committing something as little as throwing a bottle. He was immediately sentenced, whereas there were many who did much more, and their actions went unheard.
The movie is based around the riots which took place in Bradford, in 2001, and focuses on the aftermath and effect on Muslims and Non-Muslims in the area.
