Jasim Ahmed directed the short film ‘Dag’. He participated in the Short Film Corner of the 70th Cannes Film Festival in May 2016. Three years have passed, but this image has not been seen from Bangladesh. That opportunity finally came.
‘Dag’ was released on May 1 on the international Vimeo platform. It can be viewed from anywhere in the world in an on-demand rental system. As a result, anyone in the world can see the image for just $ 1.
The director said the film was released online as part of the ‘Film for Humanity’ initiative to raise funds to help the defenseless, distressed and day laborers affected by the coronavirus epidemic.
All the proceeds from the exhibition will be added to the PayPal account of the Vidyananda Foundation, a voluntary non-profit organization. Your account has been linked to the Vimeo page.
The short film is based on the story of “He who rapes is always a rapist.” As you can see from the story, a girl who was raped in the 1971 Liberation War fell into the same situation on her wedding night many years later. But then he became a defendant. The film stars Shatabdi Wadud, Sharmin Zoha Shashi, and Bakar Bakul.
For the past three years, viewers in various countries in North America and Europe have been watching ‘Dag’ through the UK-based Shorts International short film television channel. The British distribution company, which is widely discussed in the western world, shows Oscar-nominated short films. Shorts International took the television license for ‘Dag’ from the corner of the ear short film.
