Riz Ahmed "Why not do a detective noir in modern London?" The stars and director of City of Tiny Lights visit the BFI to tell Danny Leigh how their London-set thriller mixes Bogart and Barking. Based on the writing of Patrick Neate, City of Tiny Lights stars Riz Ahmed as a private detective, tasked by an escort (Cush Jumbo) to investigate the disappearance of her friend. Along the way he reconnects with an old flame (played by Billie Piper). Subscribe: http://bit.ly/subscribetotheBFI.
