Solid Short Film


Those who know Ali Hasan will tell you he is never one to shy away from controversial topics. In "Rabia", he has successfully taken on the challenge of making the audience sympathize with a type of person who is typically vilified in our society - the suicide bomber. Suicide bombing is not condoned in this film, but the director successfully demonstrates how tragic events in the protagonist's life lead her down the dark path of self destruction. The film forces viewers to look beyond the horrific act of suicide bombing and question what leads a woman to want to kill herself and those around her.
