Brown Boys Swim tells the story of two boisterous, horny, self-opinionated best friends, Mohsen and Kash. They’re gearing up for the biggest night of their lives – Jess Denver’s pool party. There’s just one problem…they can’t swim.
Fuelled by halal Haribo and chicken wings, the pair throw themselves in at the deep end, tackling cramped cubicles and cold showers as they learn how to be at one with the water.
