Terror by Sohaya Visions
English | 90 minutes
What would you do if militants stormed a café while you were enjoying time out with friends and family? Young Faraaz Hossain faced this terrifying scenario at the Holey Artisan Bakery in Dhaka, Bangladesh on July 1st in 2016. Out of nowhere, five young men ran riot, brandishing bombs, knives and assault rifles, and held everyone inside the café to ransom. The patrons suddenly became hostages, divided by religion, preached to and terrorised. Based on real-life stories from customers and staff alike, Terror recalls an incident that shocked the nation and beyond and includes dialogue between the survivors and the departed. Throwing you into the carnage, this imaginative new drama asks: would you stand up against the militants?
