    • Synopsis
    • Rocket, the century old paddle steamer boat as one of the last remaining epitaphs of the colonial past, plays both as the stage and the central character of this
      hybrid. Starting an age-old voyage, from the bustling
      harbour of capital Dhaka to the remote coastal village of
      Bangladesh, it's a frame with the politicians and the
      proletarians, privileged and the poorest-all entrapped in
      a never-ending conundrum. A ballad of nuances, an
      ensemble of cinematic poetry, ‘Day after...’ is about
      claustrophobia of class, power and prejudices; it’s a
      metaphysical odyssey crossing valleys and mists,
      unknowing of the alluring abyss!
