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.
情节张力差点意思啊。isis视角的犯罪题材，极端宗教暴力行为的自相矛盾
第一次看孟加拉电影，没想到这么火爆刺激，惊险紧张程度不亚于孟买酒店！
没想到，还行
第一次看穆斯林题材的印度电影。 穆斯林之间的对话、冲突，能感受到那种矛盾，或是宗教本身的善意。 一起礼拜的那一段拍的很巧，对宗教的虔诚，暂时放下的暴力。 作为穆斯林的我知道这部电影想说什么。 2023.3.31，加入本站以来，第一部没有开分，没有评论的电影，哈哈。
信仰的背后是别有用心
