Synopsis
In Dhaka, Bangladesh, twenty-five-year-old Saba (Mehazabien Chowdhury) lives with and cares for her demanding mother, Shirin. As Shirin's need for medical treatment increases, it falls on her daughter to find the money to pay for it. Securing a job at a local Shisha bar, Saba befriends the free-spirited Ankur and, for the first time, begins to envision what a life of her own could look like. This moving mother-daughter drama -- and debut from filmmaker Maksud Hossain -- offers a poignant look at the realities of end-of-life care and the delicate balance between love and guilt, codependence and autonomy.
