導演找來柏林影展最佳攝影作品《青春殘酷課》攝影師一鏡到底，根據真人真事改編2016年一宗導致20多人死傷的恐怖襲擊。但孟加拉導演的焦點，並非血腥屠殺，而是恐怖主義的根源。槍手佔據餐廳，挾持的人質包括本地人和外國人。他們企圖用子彈分化人心，扭曲宗教理念，旨在合理化自己的冷血暴行。無辜的伊斯蘭教徒，在「割席」與「不割席」之間抉擇，也不能逃過泯滅人性的衝擊。本片巧妙地使用長鏡頭，營造張力，緊湊得令人喘不過氣。在極端的氛圍之下，探討社會及政治議題，想必能激發觀眾的深思。

In July 2016, a group of militants attacked the Holey Artisan Bakery in Dhaka and took the lives of over 20 people. Mostofa Sarwar Farooki’s intense drama, which has been banned in Bangladesh, brings us to that deceptively quiet Saturday afternoon and inside the restaurant after the brutal terrorist takeover. With Silver Bear-winning Kazakh cinematographer Aziz Zhambakiyev (Harmony Lessons) as DP, the film is stunningly shot in a single take that focuses on the interactions between the terrorists and their captives. The sharp dialogue reveals the fundamentalist rhetoric and twisted reasoning driving religious violence and terrorism, as well as the humanity and solidarity of the hostages in the face of death.
