''White Girl'', a BAFTA award-winning one-off [[BBC]] film, centres on Leah {{spoiler|later Layla}}, a girl who relocates to Bradford with her mum and twin siblings, Adam and Casey, to escape her abusive stepdad. Much to their initial dismay, the council has housed them right in the middle of an entirely South Asian Muslim community. After overcoming her initial preconceptions of [[Useful Notes/Islam|Islam]], Leah begins to use it as a means of sheltering herself from her chaotic and fractured family life.
 
The programme was part of the [[BBC]]'s "White" season, which sought to investigate the place of the white working class in the new multicultural Britain.
