Dear Mom
This film is about the psychological journey of a filmmaker and her mother in Bangladeshi Muslim society. The daughter tries to find out the reasons why her once joyful and outgoing mother has suddenly turned very conservative. At first, she thought Mom had changed because of the Hajj, the biggest Muslim pilgrimage. After the Hajj, Mom transformed into a very religious lady and cocooned herself within the 4 walls of the house. She no longer approves of her daughter's filmmaking profession. On the top of that, she wants to take her daughter on the Hajj along with her so that she can understand her mother's beliefs. Before going on the Hajj, the daughter starts filming her mom to better understand her. Slowly, through this filmmaking process, the daughter realizes that her mom was very lonely in her world. She's still writing poems in private, which she once did when she was young. She sought freedom through her poetry, but she never published it or shared it with anyone, not even with her husband. To fulfill the void in her life she finally submits herself to God.
