SAIM SADIQ | PAKISTAN | USA | 2022 | 127’

In the heart of the metropolitan yet conservative city of Lahore lives the Rana family, comprising an old patriarch, elder son, pregnant wife, and the youngest son Haider. As the family awaits the birth of a baby boy, Haider secretly works as a background dancer at an erotic theatre where he is drawn to trans starlet, Biba. Slowly yet suddenly, Haider and Biba are engulfed in a secret romance which surreptitiously takes over his home, unravelling the dichotomy between desire and morality for the entire family.
