Entertainment Report :
Bangladeshi director Arik Anam Khan’s short film Transit will be competing in the third Oscar qualifying film festival, LA Shorts. The LA Shorts – Los Angeles Shorts International Film Festival – is now in its
25th year and the festival is considered one of the biggest short film festivals in America. The festival screens more than 300 films annually. Director Arik Anam Khan informed the matter yesterday.
While talking about his short film director Arik Anam Khan said, “It is the 3rd Oscar-qualifying festival for my short film ‘Transit’ after it was showcased
in Encounters festival in UK and Clermont-Ferrand festival in France. Screening of my film Transit
will take place in July at Los Angeles.”
The story of Transit revolves around a bus canvasser stuck in the lonely and unforgiving city of Dhaka.
He waits for an opportunity to migrate to create
a better future for his family, but his reasons to stay threaten to outweigh his reasons to cross over.
