Khalid's Mother

Khalid's mother lives in a Rishworth housing estate alongside her son Khalid, a young Asian man battling cannabis-induced psychosis and paranoia. She consents to police sectioning him during breakdowns but pleads tearfully for officers not to hurt him. Her maternal bond drives protective instincts that clash with harsh realities of mental health intervention, revealing a woman torn between love and reluctant complicity amid neighborhood indifference and mockery.
