Final Year Project

Project Title

Short film: Saat Samundar Paar

Description

Two strangers. One fading mind. A secret submerged in the shadows. When Waheed wanders into the depths of the night, his life simultaneously unravels with that of Laila. As the tide between the past and the present slowly recedes, a disturbing truth is brought to the surface, connecting the two in tragic ways. Saat Samundar Paar is a saga of a father and daughter and how someone can be lost at sea long before they ever set sail. The film is a testament to the power of family, the cruelty of dementia, and the secrets we keep even from ourselves.
