Navigating Dhaka's roads is a daily gamble for survival
In short: Experience the grueling reality of one of the world's most congested cities. This documentary follows three drivers navigating Dhaka's deadly streets to reveal the human cost behind the global headlines of traffic chaos.
The film captures the lives of workers like Badshah Mia, a 25-year-old rickshaw driver, and Mohammad Azeem, who returned to work after a near-fatal crash. These drivers face overloaded trucks, collapsing junctions, and aggressive bus operators working 16-hour shifts.
Dhaka's transportation crisis is marked by extreme danger; hundreds of accident victims reach hospitals daily. Drivers operate under constant pressure, fearing both physical harm from the gridlock and violent public backlash if a collision occurs.
