Secrets and Lies: Scammer
Description
Satinder Kaur Chohan's moving drama 'Scammer' about the ruthless world of scam call centres is part of BBC Radio 4 drama collection, Secrets and Lies.
Moving between a bustling scam call centre in Delhi, India and a house under the Heathrow flight path in British Asian suburbia, Scammer centres on the relationship between two women: Anju, an Indian scam call centre worker and Deesho, a lonely Indian elderly woman, unknowingly suffering the early stages of dementia. When Deesho mistakes Anju for her granddaughter Navi, an unexpected connection begins to form between them.
