Description

My final year project is a research-based short fiction film titled “Aadat”. It deals with the topics of masculinity, ethics in work, and taboo topics of homosexuality and sex work. The film also gives the viewers insight into the professional lives of the sex workers and shows how they deal with the ideas of homosexuality and diseases caused by sex work.
