Overview

Completed in 2019, this short film remained unreleased for years before finally premiering at various film festivals in 2025, where it screened to critical acclaim and won multiple awards. In 2026, it made its official broadcast debut on television and was released online for global audiences. Driven by Dhaka's relentless traffic, a reckless motorcyclist dangerously rode onto a sidewalk, terrifying pedestrians and aggressively confronting a visually impaired man who was using the guided path. As an outraged crowd gathered to confront the illegal rider for his blatant disregard for safety and decency, the blind man remarkably stepped in to shield his aggressor. Ultimately, his unexpected act of grace transformed a moment of hostility into a powerful lesson in compassion.

Directed by Borhan Khan
