In the Path of Giants

In Southern Bangladesh, hungry wild elephants trapped by the world’s largest refugee camp are rampaging over the land of local farmers. The result is a tense three-way stand-off between the refugees, local Bengalis and indigenous farmers, worsening already strained ethnic tensions. In 2017 Bangladesh opened its arms to nearly a million Rohingya who fled a violent regime of ethnic cleansing in Myanmar. But the camp built to house them unknowingly blocked the last migratory corridor for the local elephant population. With no easy escape, a Rohingya refugee, an indigenous farmer, a Bengali forest ranger and the shrinking population of wild elephants find themselves trapped in an impossible fight for land, freedom and a place to call home.

all that appears solid is built on blood

Footage documenting the making of a mass grave in Khan Younis, Gaza is slowed frame by frame, re-shot on film and soaked in human blood. all that appears solid is built on blood takes a segment from a 2023 video and engages each frame individually. The blood acts as a layer of protection while at times obscuring and tinting the image, the people and the land, creating its own register of time passing. The blood-trenched frames come together in a new montage overlaid with reflections by Gazan writer and poet Ahmad Al-Shaer and a composition by Palestinian musician Bint Mbareh. Through the cadence of Al-Shaer's words and Mbareh's music, the film creates an experience of time that pays homage to the militant time-keeping of Gazan journalists and documentarians.

Still, Moving

In a tender dialogue between the filmmaker, her acrobat partner, and her deceased mother, “Still, Moving” examines life in the wake of death as time ticks by, through the existential musings of a clown in a long-distance relationship. This experimental and intimate film threads together voice notes, journal entries and conversations of the filmmaker, Tash, and her partner, Ange, in an attempt to make sense of their dreams, fears and the major life events that occur whilst on tour: the idea of motherhood after losing a mother, a birthday, an injury. Filmed in East London, across the Netherlands and Latvia, the film explores togetherness when apart and exists, in itself, as an artefact of the relationship.

Learning to Drive in Birmingham

Laisul, a Bangladeshi immigrant now living in the UK, attempts to navigate Birmingham through driving lessons, conversations in cars, and phone calls from home. Filmed inside vehicles and among construction sites, blocked roads, and sprawling South Asian neighbourhoods on the city’s outskirts, the work reflects on mobility, belonging, and displacement, while offering a glimpse into the lives of Bangladeshi communities who have made Birmingham their home. As the artist learns to drive in a city seemingly built around cars, encounters with friends, driving instructors, and archival traces of Bangladeshi political figures reveal Birmingham’s deep connections to Bangladesh and its diaspora. Moving between intimate conversations and urban observation, the film unfolds as a portrait of a city in transition, where personal experiences intersect with migration, infrastructure, and histories that continue to travel between Birmingham and Bangladesh.
