“Testimony of a Thread” premieres today

Kamar Ahmad Simon's latest documentary “Testimony of a Thread” premieres today at 6pm at Chhayanaut Auditorium in the capital.

“Testimony of a Thread”, that draws on the Rana Plaza tragedy, explores the connected worlds of hope and despair around the readymade garment industry of Bangladesh.

Kamar, director and writer of the documentary, said, “I never took a fruitful approach to filmmaking; instead I opted for a meaningful approach.”

“There is discourse happening around us, and I always want to take part in it. Thorough this discourse, we would be able to find a better tomorrow. As a filmmaker I am moved by the diverse reality,” Kamar added.

“Testimony of a Thread” seeks to find the answers to some questions.  It's a monologue, and 52 minutes of not forgetting.

Produced by Sara Afreen, the documentary won The Asian Pitch Award 2013.
