About

Movie screening Friday, September 9th, 2022 to Monday, September 12th, 2022 (on-demand; 75mn) followed by Q&A session on Monday, September 12th, 2022

The film The Ice Cream Sellers (2021, 75mn) is a human story of the Rohingya people - ‘the most persecuted minority in the world’ according to the former United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights Zeid Ra’ad Al Hussein - who fled from Myanmar into Bangladesh after ‘a textbook example of ethnic cleansing’. The film invites the audience to become a part of the journey of two young siblings Ayas (10) and Asia (8) across the refugee camp in Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh, just as the director himself was invited and received intimate access into their journey of life.
