In July 2016, Islamic terrorists stormed a popular café in upscale Dhaka and held its patrons hostage, killing more than 20 people and sending shockwaves across the subcontinent. Faraaz is the youngest son of a rich, politically connected family. That evening, he meets his friends at the café and finds himself caught in the crossfire. How he reacts to the nightmarish situation forms the heart of the story. Offsetting nail-biting tension with unexpected humour – often at the expense of inept law-enforcement officials – Hansal Mehta (Aligarh, LFF 2015) brings his trademark sensitivity, nuance and empathy to this fictionalised retelling. It is particularly striking for the way it looks at religious extremism from the perspective of Muslims who have seen their faith questioned and demonised because of the actions of radical extremists.

我觉得拍的挺不错的,另一个角度的穆斯林电影,但是在生死攸关的时候,跟恐怖分子争论有意义么,太作死了
双方的行动力差距非常明显。人质已经死了几十个,警察大官还不忘悠哉玩笑要拿画的布局图回去挂墙上
夜幕救援 Faraaz (2022)
孟加拉国版的”孟买酒店“,恐怖主义就是这样,以热爱、奉献的名义,行卑劣龌龊的事。
