Amir, a Bangladeshi student in London, who leads a double life revolving around partying and lies, confesses to his strict-Muslim parents that he is a disbeliever. Set in London, the film follows Amir, a young Bangladeshi boy studying abroad. He lives with his elder brother in London while the rest of his family live back in Bangladesh. Amir leads a double life - His parents know of him as an innocent, sinless boy whereas Amir is someone who occasionally drinks, smokes cannabis and is sexually active - all of which go against his religion. Once a pious boy due to his religious upbringing, Amir does not know if he believes in God or religion anymore. Yet he pretends to pray and fast to keep his parents happy. Frustrated and unable to live a lie anymore, Amir one day decides to confess to his parents via email. Little does he know that his parents are in London for a surprise Eid visit - and that he must deal with this situation in person.
