REHANA MARYAM NOOR
Directed by Abdullah Mohammad Saad 2021 | Bangladesh | 107 minutes | 
The first Bangladeshi film to make the Cannes Official Selection. A searing drama about a medical professor’s fight for justice against a colleague she believes has abused a student.
Rehana, an assistant professor at a medical college, is meticulous in her work and as stern with her students as she is with her layabout brother and her young daughter. Struggling to maintain a balance between her work and family life, Rehana is constantly under pressure. When she comes across a tearful student leaving a professor’s office, Rehana is convinced she has witnessed an abuse of power. She sets about convincing the reluctant student to lay a formal complaint. But Rehana comes up against powerful resistance and a system that places reputation above everything. Her life begins to spiral out of control. Absolutely gripping and complex, with a fiery performance by Azmeri Haque Badhon as Rehana, this is a provocative and timely film.
