Eaten by Lions is a 2019 British comedy film written and directed by Jason Wingard.
[5][6] Half-brothers Pete and Omar's parents are eaten by lions when their hot air balloon crashes in a safari park, so their grandmother takes them in.
The boys' aunt Ellen and uncle Ken take in Peter easily, but are icy to Omar as he's half Indian and not related by blood.
Omar announces he is embarking on a journey to Blackpool in search of his estranged father, he eventually lets Pete tag along.
The boys are invited to stay for the engagement luncheon of Malik's oldest daughter Nadia.
When the patriarch of the family Saftar arrives and finds out Irfan falsely used Malik's name and fathered a son, he punishes him like a child.
The next day Irfan takes them out in Blackpool to see the family's Pakistani-Indian shop, the arcade and a show of people in drag.
When the family returns they find the car crashed into the house, a rager and a very drunk Parveen vomiting on a cop and breaking her silence with a slew of profanity.
Eaten by Lions was developed by Mecca Films with principal photography beginning in April 2017.
