Hasina - 36 Days in July

About This Movie

Hasina - 36 Days in July is a stark and gripping documentary that dives deep into a tumultuous period in Bangladesh's political landscape. Phil Rees, with his knack for uncovering the truth, presents a raw look at the state-sanctioned violence against student protesters. The tone is intensely somber, and it really immerses you in the chaos of those 36 days. The pacing is deliberate, building tension as it juxtaposes harrowing footage with chilling narratives. What sets this film apart is its reliance on covert recordings and leaked documents, giving it an almost voyeuristic feel. There’s a real sense of urgency and weight here - it’s more than just a recounting of events; it’s a profound exploration of power, accountability, and the human cost of dissent.
