The Ice Cream Sellers - Q&A with Film Director Sohel Rahman

The film The Ice Cream Sellers (2021, 75mn) is a human story of the Rohingya people - ‘the most persecuted minority in the world’ according to the former United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights Zeid Ra’ad Al Hussein - who fled from Myanmar into Bangladesh after ‘a textbook example of ethnic cleansing’. The film invites the audience to become a part of the journey of two young siblings Ayas (10) and Asia (8) across the refugee camp in Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh.
