Ismaelillo

Overview

In the summer of 2006, in Chittagong, Ismaelillo, a five-year-old boy, spends his days playing in the village and on the beaches, while Ahmed, his father, a former fisherman now working at the world’s largest ship-breaking yard, dreams of a better future by migrating and joining his brother Salim in Venice. A sudden accident ruins this plan, separating father and son irreparably.
